Ellerbe Becket, an 色控传媒 company, in association with Northwest Architectural Company, provided planning, architecture and interior design services for GroupHealth Cooperative鈥檚 ambulatory surgery center and medical office building.聽The multi-specialty medical center, located next to the I-405 freeway and connected to the neighboring Overlake Hospital, serves as Group Health鈥檚 primary facility on Seattle鈥檚 east side. It will provide space for the outpatient practice of GroupHealth physicians in more than 20 specialty areas.
The center houses outpatient surgery, diagnostic imaging, pharmacy, a women鈥檚 health care center, cancer treatment center and an outpatient acute and urgent care center.聽One unique feature is the use of a flexible, multi-assignable exam module on each of the clinical floors.聽This standardization allows any physician to comfortably use any room and allows for future flexibility as GroupHealth鈥檚 practice evolves.
