The newly expanded and renovated Northwestern Medicine Medical Office Building in Bloomingdale, Illinois is now open. The 50,000 square-foot facility at 231-235 S. Gary Avenue is one of Northwestern Medicine’s largest outpatient facilities and features numerous medical specialties all under one roof. The project involved the acquisition of additional space and a complete renovation to house Northwestern Medicine Regional Medical Group Primary Care and several specialties, including Cardiology, Endocrinology, Orthopedics and Gastroenterology. Additional services include Physical Therapy, and a new MRI in Diagnostic Imaging. The first phase of the project, which featured a new Immediate Care Center, opened in March of 2021. The office building features more than 70 exam rooms which are built nearly identical to promote standardization across the facility. It is helpful for medical providers to be able to walk into any exam room and know exactly where everything is and what to expect. Standardization also helps significantly with flexibility allowing different specialties to use the same exam room depending on volume, which makes the real estate footprint more efficient. Expansion in the Bloomingdale area will continue in 2022 to house a new Northwestern Medicine Comprehensive Spine Center focusing on spine health, pain management and physical therapy.
