Once complete, the 18,000-square-foot facility will include 15 exam rooms, 98 parking spaces, and advanced diagnostic and radiology services such as mammography, ultrasound, CT scans, bone density testing, and X-rays. It will be staffed by board-certified emergency physicians and specialized nurses, providing the same high-quality care as Broward Health’s hospital-based departments and ensuring seamless access to the broader health system.
Designed by HKS Architects and built by Skanska, the facility is located at the intersection of West Oakland Park Boulevard and NW 90th Terrace. It is expected to open in spring 2026.
