The University of Maryland Medical Center includes the new Homer Gudelsky Building, which opened in 1994. This building houses Maryland's most advanced facilities for cancer care, cardiology, neurocare and transplantation. The Gudelsky Building's unique design includes a 12-story atrium providing a soothing atmosphere for patients and visitors and a dramatic exterior that serves as a landmark for the surrounding UniversityCenter community.
Rooms are comfortable and home-like and many feature views of the Baltimore skyline.
Inviting day rooms on each floor provide places for patients to relax and visit with their families outside their rooms. Each floor also has a guest relations representative to extend greetings and answer questions. Hospital amenities include a gift shop, an optical shop, a concierge desk, a cafeteria, Subway, The Great Cookie, Donna's Restaurant and Brew Rx, serving Starbuck's Coffee.
