Lincoln-PGIM partnership enters local market; eyes growth in high-demand sector
Mesa, AZ (September 10, 2026) — Lincoln Property Company (“Lincoln”), a global, full-service real estate firm with over $31 billion of assets under management, and PGIM, the global investment management business of Prudential Financial Inc., today announced the acquisition of Surgery Center of Gilbert, located in metro Phoenix’s East Valley submarket.
The purchase represents Lincoln and PGIM’s first acquisition together in metro Phoenix, with an eye toward securing more healthcare real estate in a market that is high priority for the partners.
Totaling 13,957 square feet, Surgery Center of Gilbert is a purpose-built, single-tenant ambulatory surgery center occupied and operated by a partnership of Banner Health, Atlas and physician surgical partners. The property is secured by a long-term lease to Banner and its surgical partners.
Banner Health is one of the largest non-profit health systems in the U.S., including a network of over 20 ambulatory surgery centers across greater Phoenix.
A best-in-class outpatient surgical facility, Surgery Center of Gilbert includes five operating rooms, six pre-op rooms and multiple post-anesthesia care unit rooms supporting phase 1 and phase 2 care. Collectively, the facility supports 21 medical practitioners working across eight specialties, including general surgery, ophthalmology, plastic surgery, podiatry, ENT, orthopedics and urology.
"Phoenix is one of the most competitive and sought-after medical real estate markets in the country, drawing sustained interest from well-capitalized investors and health systems alike,” said Lincoln Executive Vice President John Orsak. “We are enthusiastic about Lincoln’s expanding investment activity in this sector, and we look forward to growing our investment footprint across the region. We have high conviction in Phoenix’s fundamentals and the power of Arizona’s population growth to power durable demand for specialized outpatient care.”
“We continue to see compelling opportunities in medical outpatient real estate, supported by the long-term shift of care into lower-cost, more accessible settings and the need for high-quality facilities in growth markets,” said Soultana Reigle, Head of U.S. Equity for PGIM’s Real Estate investment group. “This acquisition reflects our strategy of investing in healthcare assets with strong local demand drivers, durable tenancy and the potential to deliver resilient income through market cycles.”

The dense retail and healthcare corridor boasts a daytime population of almost 280,000, and over 124,000 households and 7,500 businesses within a five-mile radius, including the nearby Banner Gateway Medical Center and Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center.
