New Location, Same Expertise


On April 6, 2009, we moved into a new office space in the Riverview Health Pavilion located at 14535A Hazel Dell Parkway, in Carmel, Indiana. Our move signifies a new partnership between our practice and Riverview Hospital and opens up new opportunities for collaboration and convenience for our patients. See http://www.riverviewbariatrics.org/.

Dr. McEwen has both inpatient and outpatient options available now that we have added the Riverview Surgery Center along with the Indiana Surgery Center in Noblesville. Don't be concerned in regards to network and insurance: we plan on continuing our relationship with Community by using the Indiana Surgery Center.
 
The office is located at 146th Street and Hazel Dell Parkway and is adjacent to Riverview Rehab & Fitness Center. In this state-of-the-art facility, our patients will be able to attend informational sessions, receive education and exercise in a beautiful, supportive, medically-directed environment.
