Story

The Zeeland Veterinary Hospital needed space to accommodate the clinic’s growing client base and new veterinary staff as well as a re-designed space that would improve workflow for the clinic’s operations. The clinic owner initially began to look at a new site and building option and after comparing the costs, pros and cons of a location change decided to renovate the existing clinic. In order to do this, our team adjusted a temporary building to fit the needs of the clinic and helped the staff through a transition of operating out of a temporary location.The tight project site presented a challenge in working on both the main renovation and the site work.  Time was of the essence and without the option to do it consecutively, our team made the best use of interior and exterior space. Landscaping was successfully completed before winter.  Additional parking spaces were created after demolishing a neighboring garage. Spaces within the newly renovated hospital offer a spacious waiting room with animal separation, climate-controlled pet wards, and consultation rooms. The pharmacy now has a dedicated space for dispensing medications and a number of pre-procedure and recovery tasks can be coordinated in the centrally located main work hub. The doctors’ offices are set up in a collaborative layout and employees can enjoy a lounge with a full kitchen.
