Sanford opens new Van Demark building expansion on Sioux Falls main campus
Sanford Health recently completed construction on the Van Demark building on Sanford's main campus in Sioux Falls. The 36,550-square-foot expansion added a third and fourth floor to the building.
Van Demark now houses the entire sports medicine department on the third floor, which features 20 exam rooms, two X-ray rooms and five cast rooms as well as space for research trials, orthobiologics and a 3D printer.
“Having all of our sports medicine providers together on the same floor increases our ability to collaborate which improves patient care,” Dr. Kristofer Kimber, department chair and senior sports medicine surgeon, stated in a press release. “The new layout also makes the entire Van Demark building easier to navigate for our patients.”
The fourth floor is a shell space that will be used for future growth.

A new orthopedic hospital across from the Van Demark building on Sanford's campus is also in the works with construction set to finish in 2025.
