SUNY Upstate Medical University

The goals of the programming and planning study were twofold: program and plan a building that consolidates all the University Clinics into one location with supporting Outpatient Diagnostic and Treatment services; creating a facility that supports the teaching mission of the Organization. The six-month study resulted in an 8 story, 400,000 SF building located at the core of the campus. This newly conceived hub would bridge two garages, the Regional Oncology Center, and the future Cancer Center.

​

The program contains a Full-Service Outpatient Imaging Department, conveniently located on bridge level, one floor below Outpatient Surgery. The planned Surgery Department is comprised of 6-operating rooms, Pre- and Post-Op spaces and complete with all the required elements of a state-of-the-art ambulatory surgery center. 

An ODS 23-Hour Unit is located adjacent to Surgery. This enables the safe transport of patients that require a lengthier recovery period. Specialty Surgical Clinics such as Burn, Wound, Bariatric, and Transplant are located one floor above the Outpatient Surgery.

​

Additional Program elements include Orthopedic, ENT, and Cardiology Clinics, along with Pathology, Infusion, and a Conference Center.
