Apex Solutions for Medical Practices

Ear, Nose & Throat Care Center

The design of this 5,000 sqft Ear, Nose & Throat Center consists of 5 exam rooms, 2 surgical suites, and administrative spaces for full-time staff. A striking vertical wood wall feature extends floor to ceiling and is cantilevered over the reception desk. The dramatic contrast of white quartz against the walnut laminate reception desk forms clean lines and an elevated aesthetic. Patients are surrounded by old-world concrete inspired hexagon tiles installed to form a gradient at the waiting room. Linear LEDs are directionally suspended throughout the reception, waiting, patient check-out, and staff workspaces to define circulation and the programmatic function of each space. A multitude of pendants glows like lanterns in the hallway guiding patients and staff alike. Industrious stone and wood LVTs provide a backdrop for custom dual-toned millwork that embody a modern, minimalist appearance.

RAM Plastic Surgery

As Dr. Ramsen Azizi began his journey to design and build a new, accredited plastic surgery facility, he was looking for industry-leading expertise to help mitigate risk, eliminate surprises, and save time, money, and effort. As a busy surgeon, Dr. Azizi engaged Apex to do just that.

This accredited Plastic Surgery Center is set in Old Irving Park, where this historic building underwent a complete transformation from the façade to a complete overhaul of the Interior. Today, when driving up to the building which houses the surgery center, your attention is captured by a bold but classic statement, depicting an extraordinary framework of deep navy blues accentuated by gold architectural ornamentations.

The second area is dedicated to the X-Ray Suite and a state of the art conference room. This Medical Clinic was designed to provide an excellent place for patients from newborns to seniors, and for the staff, to have a comfortable and relaxing experience. A modern and clean look is found throughout, bringing together its seven different types of luxury vinyl tile and custom millwork with a total of ten different types of finishes.

Advanced Dermatology

The primary objective of this bustling, state-of-the-art, 8,653 square foot north shore dermatology practice was to create a welcoming, yet professional, atmosphere that reflects a commitment to providing the latest in cosmetic and skincare treatments to patients. The sophistication of the interior is immediately apparent upon entering the modern, inviting waiting room, featuring a soaring, industrial ceiling and a show stopping, modern chandelier. The primarily neutral, elegant color palette, flows seamlessly throughout the space, allowing the artfully placed pops of copper paint, textured wallcovering and upholstered pieces, to stand out. In addition to the 16 Treatment and Aesthetic Rooms, this office includes a fully staffed, 1500 square foot MOHS Lab, Cosmetic Lab, Nurses’ Station, Call Center, Conference Room and two Sub-waiting rooms.

All Star Pediatrics

This outdoor park theme will be enjoyed by patients of all ages throughout this 3,323 sqft pediatric office in Countryside, IL. Greeted by a picket fence in the vestibule, live edge wood countertops, and trees in the waiting room. Each patient follows the “sidewalk” flooring with turf grass along corridors to their private exam room. The colors from All Star Pediatrics logo are playfully and thoughtfully used throughout this office and brightly featured in the flooring & light fixtures. This was also used to help staff and patients differentiate each of the 9 exam rooms.

Suburban Ear Nose & Throat Associates

Suburban Ear Nose & Throat had outgrown their practice, and needed to expand their facility in view of 3 additional Doctors joining their team. There was also a need to incorporate an Allergy specialist and Audiology booths within the practice. To accomplish this, they purchased a new 8,800 sqft standalone building and retained APEX to deliver turnkey design and construction services. The ENT team was looking for the design to be clean and simple, but not stark. They wanted to ensure the practice wasn’t too modern for their older patients, or too traditional for the younger audience. Our design team created a transitional theme, featuring natural color tones with stone applied to the reception desk, and a wood plank accent in their spacious waiting area. Suburban ENT and their patients are now enjoying the optimized workflow and refreshing environment of the new clinic.

Chicago Surgical Specialists

The design of this 10,000 SF multi-specialty healthcare redevelopment was inspired by the rich, warm features of a 1950’s bank. Substantial, sophisticated, and modern touches are found throughout both floors. 11 exam and procedure rooms, and a surgery suite for both Oral Surgery & Plastic Surgery Procedures. The staircase was existing and renovated with a custom-designed metal welded handrail, that sets the mood for the entire space. The space was designed with dark woods, moulding, stone tile flooring, all offering a classic and timeless feel.

Kaminska Dermatology

New to Chicago’s North Center neighborhood, Kaminska Dermatology’s stunning practice boasts a modern rustic design with a touch of glam and industrial flair. Natural, and neutral elements with rich wood tones, stones, and a custom carpet designed for maximum patient comfort and appeal. Shimmery treatment room flooring and bold pops of fuchsia and violet, found in the practice’s logo, are elegantly carried throughout this unique 2,100 sq ft corner building.

Afresh Med Spa & Plastic Surgery

aFresh Med Spa & Plastic Surgery is a 4,800 SF AAAASF accredited plastic surgery facility. The design theme was based on the idea of natural formations, re-creating a serene environment as restorative as a graceful waterfall and as tranquil as a sandy beach. These natural elements inspired the soothing color palette of white and tan with teal accents, producing a design aesthetic that flows seamlessly with the name and mission of the practice.

Basko Dermatology

Basko Dermatology is a bright, welcoming, clean office. Taking a minimal approach with the color palette, a cool white background is accented by bold pops of fuchsia throughout the space.

Medical Facility & Healthcare Construction

Medical practices provide a broad spectrum of health care services for people of all ages. While a pediatrician will deal specifically with children usually up to the age of 18 or 19 years old, a family practice would see patients of all ages, and a specialist such as a dermatologist would see patients being treated for specific skin conditions. Each medical practice has unique requirements when it comes to medical equipment, exam rooms, lobby and waiting area design, and treatment or surgery areas.

Your medical office design should also be unique to your individual style, preferences, and goals for your practice. At Apex Design Build, our mission is to bring your vision to life in a dynamic combination of design, architecture, and construction that serves the needs of your patients and allows you to operate your medical practice in an environment that is both beautiful and functional. In today’s healthcare community, many medical practices are moving away from traditional office visits to a shared medical appointment (SMA) format, where related physician groups see patients on the same day, at the same location, rather than requiring the patient to make one appointment with a primary care physician and subsequent appointments with one or more specialists. This requires a different kind of medical office design and healthcare construction, one that can accommodate this new treatment model that rewards practitioners for treating patients holistically.

Today’s medical practices are seeking design, architecture, and construction services that result in a comfortable, modern, and efficient space with primary physician and ancillary services such as imaging, lab work, pharmacy, or therapy services all available at the same location. This saves the patient’s and the practitioner’s time, maximizing patient load and efficiency of operation.
