Browne McGregor Architects was engaged to provide the initial site due diligence, programming, planning, and full architectural and interior design services for the new 19,000 sf freestanding plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine center.

Guests pass by a “secret” wellness garden before entering the grand lobby that boasts wonderful daylighting, a two-story drip fountain, and a sweeping monumental stair. The state-of-the-art facility provides an expressive and peaceful setting for the two-O.R. licensed ambulatory surgery center and aesthetic medicine clinic on the ground floor and the relaxing, luxurious med spa on the second floor.
