PHOTO TOUR: Hilger Face Center

The vision for the relocation and expansion of the Hilger Face Center – University of Minnesota Physicians in Edina, Minn., is rooted in the mission to serve patients in a new setting that will support the care team.

The clinic includes facial plastic and reconstructive surgery services.

In the clinic’s former location, no workspace—outside of exam rooms—existed for the care team. A separate workspace has been added that allows staff a private area for administrative tasks or to break away for a few minutes of down time.

The office space, complete with a separate staff entrance, includes flexible workspace including a workroom, virtual visit space, shared office, and a dedicated nurse manager’s office.

The previous space included two exam rooms, one functioning as a procedure room and the other shared with an esthetician. The new space includes three dedicated exam rooms featuring soft blue- and walnut-toned custom millwork, filtered natural light through gradient window film that goes from translucent to fully transparent at the top, and views to the street.

In addition, the project includes a procedure area with accommodations for inpatient procedures as well as a consultation room with three-dimensional and video imaging that allows patients to visually preview improvements to the face and an esthetician room that can flex into a patient exam room if needed.

A new patient waiting area features ample space, daylight, and seating for up to six patients, as well as a coffee bar. Patients checking out use a dedicated window to the side of the receptionist that allows for increased privacy.

Retail space is located toward the front of the clinic and is visible upon entering the care area as well as when exiting. This is accommodated in a custom millwork display with integrated lighting.

Opportunities to showcase art are provided throughout the space, as well.

Supporting The Connection Between Facility Design And Outcomes

“This is an exciting time for our industry. We might be facing some of our most demanding challenges, but we are also in a time of unprecedented growth in the construction of new building projects and of building renovations and remodels.” These were the opening words when I penned my first column 22 years ago for the newly launched Healthcare Design magazine. They are as relevant today as they were more than two decades ago. At that time, current spending on healthcare construction was $17 billion a year and was expected to increase to $27 billion annually in the next decade. This year, according to a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, healthcare construction spending is estimated to reach more than $62 billion and continue to increase over the next five years. Increasing demand for healthcare services and an aging population will continue to drive new construction for the foreseeable future, especially for new outpatient clinics. At the same time, the added financ
