Center for Neurosurgery and Spine near St. Cloud, Minn.

ST. CLOUD, Minn. (April 6, 2010) – Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, Inc. today announced that it has acquired the Center for Neurosurgery and Spine, a 36,600-square-foot, two-building medical office portfolio in the St. Cloud suburb of Sartell.

Located at 162 and 166 19^th St. South, the Center for Neurosurgery and Spine is within approximately one-half mile of CentraCare Clinic Health Plaza and three miles of the 393-bed St. Cloud Hospital. Built in 2006 on approximately 3.7 acres of land, the property is fully leased to five tenants, including Central Minnesota Neurosciences, the Center for Pain Management and Central Minnesota Center for Diagnostic Imaging.

“The Center for Neurosurgery and Spine is completely occupied, well-located near the region’s largest hospital and in the midst of a thriving population center with growing demand for medical care,” said Jeff Hanson, chairman and chief executive officer. “These are key attributes that make this an ideal acquisition for Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II.”

The Center for Neurosurgery and Spine benefits from its proximity to St. Cloud Hospital, the largest full-service medical center in central Minnesota.  St. Cloud Hospital, founded in 1886, serves a population of approximately 640,000 people in a 12-county area.  The hospital has been named a Thomson Reuters Top 100 Hospital and recognized as one of “America’s Best Hospitals” by U.S. News & World Report.  CentraCare Clinic Health Plaza houses St. Cloud Hospital outpatient services.

The property was acquired from unaffiliated third parties: Stingray Properties LLC, Crystal Blue Properties LLC, Sylvan Holdings LLC and Dr. Samuel Elghor. The sellers were represented by Noah Larson of Grubb & Ellis | Northco Real Estate Services.
