Construction firm Robins & Morton joined AdventHealth on March 4 to celebrate the topping out of a new medical office building on the AdventHealth Zephyrhills campus in Pasco County, Florida.
The milestone celebrates the placement of the building’s final structural beam and continued work on a facility designed to improve access to care.
The nearly 35,000-square-foot medical office building will provide additional space for new and employed physicians and offer patients more convenient access to care. Once completed, the facility will house Primary Care and multiple specialty physician offices, including cardiology, gastroenterology, general surgery and urology.
“We’re excited to see this project take shape here on our Zephyrhills hospital campus. It’s a reminder of our long-term commitment to the Zephyrhills community,” said Mike Murrill, president and CEO of AdventHealth Zephyrhills. “For 40 years, AdventHealth Zephyrhills has grown alongside this community, and a new medical office building ensures we’re prepared to meet the needs of our neighbors for decades to come.”
The project responds to the area’s rapid growth, with Pasco County projecting a 40 percent population increase by 2045.
AdventHealth is partnering with HuntonBrady Architects on the design of the new medical office building, with Robins & Morton serving as the construction partner.
“We’re proud to celebrate this important milestone alongside our longtime partner AdventHealth,” Robins & Morton Florida Division Manager Todd Watson said. “Topping out this new medical office building is a testament to the dedication and collaboration of everyone involved. We look forward to delivering a facility that will expand access to high-quality healthcare and serve the needs of our community for years to come.”
Construction remains on track, with the new medical office building expected to be completed this fall.
