Pacific Sports and Spine opens new surgery center in Springfield

A new surgery center on Beverly Street gives Springfield patients another nearby place to turn for sports injuries, back pain and other spine-related problems, instead of driving to Eugene or farther away.

Pacific Sports and Spine marked the opening with a ribbon cutting and community open house near Gateway Street, putting a specialty-care business directly into a corridor that already draws health and commercial development. The practice already had locations in Eugene and Sutherlin, and the Springfield site broadens that regional footprint.

The clinic describes itself as providing “comprehensive, safe, and advanced treatments” for sports and spine-related injuries, with care from board-certified, fellowship-trained interventional specialists. In practical terms, that means the new center is built for people who need a faster path from injury or chronic pain to diagnosis, treatment and recovery.

The address listed by Northwest Health Partners is 2445 Beverly St., Suite B, Springfield, OR 97477. The same directory also lists Pacific Northwest Surgery Center at 2445 Beverly St. in Springfield, showing how closely the surgery center and the Pacific Sports and Spine location are tied to the same Beverly Street campus.

For Lane County patients, the timing matters. Thousands of Eugene-Springfield-area patients were turned away from Oregon Medical Group last year, and Oregon’s provider shortage has been described at 1.51 providers per 1,000 residents. In that kind of system, every new specialty opening can mean fewer weeks spent waiting, fewer referral dead ends and one less trip across the metro area.

The Springfield center is likely to matter first for students with sports injuries, workers who cannot afford long delays and older residents managing chronic pain. For those patients, a shorter drive on Beverly Street may be the difference between putting off care and getting back to normal routines sooner.
