RAMONA, Calif. — C.W. Driver has completed construction on Palomar Health’s Ramona Ambulatory Care Center, a new $4.5-million satellite clinic in Ramona, Calif. When open to the community in March 2013, the 7,600-square-foot, single-story outpatient medical clinic built on approximately an acre of land will expand the healthcare services for the Ramona community.
Designed by San Diego-based Mascari Warner Architects, the facility will provide adult and pediatric primary care physician services, urgent care, radiology services and outpatient diagnostic testing, as well as specialty services and programs, such as health education and prevention classes. Built in a prime, the clinic, which will be co-owned by Palomar Health and developer Pacific Medical Buildings, will welcome Arch Health Partners, an affiliated physician organization of Palomar Health, as its exclusive tenant.
“We’re very excited to unveil the new Ramona Ambulatory Care Center and the various services it has to offer to the Ramona community,” said Michael Shanahan, director of Palomar Health facilities planning. “Additionally, with a total of three available acres near the new site, we look forward to the possibilities of future expansion.”
The urgent care facility, which is situated across from the C.W. Driver-built Ramona Library and the future Ramona Intergenerational Community Campus, features a cement plaster exterior along with high ceilings that include the use of exposed beams in the building’s lobby.
