Important Entrance Update for Eastman Dental Patients
Important Entrance Update for Eastman Dental Patients
Starting December 1, Eastman Dental’s back entrance—closest to the hospital parking garage—will be closed for construction until further notice. During construction, patients must enter the building through the front entrance, which faces Elmwood Avenue.
Our front entrance now features a one-way driveway where patients can be dropped off and picked up very close to the door. Drivers can enter from East Drive and exit onto Elmwood Ave. Please note that parking continues to be available in the hospital parking garage.

Improvements Coming Soon
When the construction is done, patients will notice major improvements:
- A new canopy covering the bridge from the parking garage to the back entrance
- Improved sidewalk conditions
What to Know for Your Next Appointment
The front entrance on Elmwood Ave/East Drive is the only entrance available during construction.
Please allow an extra 15 minutes to park and walk to the front entrance.
Patient drop off and pick up may be done at the new front main entrance driveway.
Need Assistance? A continuous pick-up and drop-off heated shuttle service will be available from the hospital parking garage near Jackson Drive. It will loop around for pick-up and drop-off throughout the day.
We appreciate your continued patience and understanding during the construction. We are committed to making sure all patients can access our services as comfortably and conveniently as possible during this time.
