New Medical Office Building Complete for Plymouth Pediatric Associates
Construction is complete on a new building for Plymouth Pediatric Associates, located in Plymouth, Massachusetts.
The 12,000-square-foot, single-story medical office building was designed and constructed for a group of independent pediatric physicians.
The project team included general contractor A.P. Whitaker & Sons, Inc. with architect Trapani Architects assisting with site selection, programming, design and construction administration, as well as furniture selection and interior design. The program includes both clinical and urgent care facilities, exam rooms, lab, behavioral health treatment areas, shared physicians’ offices and two clinical workstations. The administrative spaces are separated from the clinic side of the building by a two-story atrium with a large reception area that can separate registration activities for well and sick patients. Administrative facilities also include a staff break room and training/conference room.
PPA envisioned a calming ocean-themed space with fun colors for all ages. To evoke this concept, the design team used patterns resembling sand dunes and waves, as well as cloth canvas sails flying high above the sun-filled main reception/waiting area. During construction, the team modified the plan in reaction to the effects of COVID-19 on a clinical setting, providing a solution that allowed the staff to section off areas of the clinic to create semi-isolated spaces, as needed
