Cox Medendorp Olson Architects

With the need to expand its services, this growing bariatric practice called on CMO to help them design a new 14,275 square foot facility within the new Heritage Pointe office building. Located on the main level of the building it will take advantage of two exterior entrances as well as access to the main lobby of the building.

 CMO worked closely with the staff to develop a patient-centered floor plan that meets the specific needs of the bariatric patient, including shorter distances to exam rooms from the waiting area, private scale areas, and appropriately sized architectural elements such as doors, corridors, and casework. Interior colors and materials were selected by the client.

 The completed project includes twelve (12) exam rooms in pod arrangement with nurse station; seventeen (17) private offices for physicians, managers, dieticians, and behaviorists; staff open office and support areas; staff lunch room; large waiting room, 560 square foot retail store; 2200 square foot sub dividable large group meeting room; physical therapy area with offices.

 Unique to this practice is the ability to close off the "medical" portion of this office, while still allowing access to the "educational" portion for after hour seminars, meetings, and support groups.
