While preparing a statement of conditions for JCAHO review, Hyman Hayes Associates identified several code deficiencies in the cramped Troy Obstetrics space. This triggered a review of possible space alternatives.

Conceptual design options for the existing space showed that relocation into a larger facility was the best alternative. Hyman Hayes Associates worked with Seton Health System, which owns Troy Pediatrics, to evaluate spaces, assist in lease negotiations, and establish a construction budget once a space was selected. Various conceptual floor plans were developed for the 2,900-sf space. The design selected was able to accommodate existing windows, columns, and duct locations, reducing construction cost.

The design includes a colorful waiting area with a 'children's playhouse', four exam rooms, each with a different color palette, a treatment room, lab, and support spaces. To provide a pediatric atmosphere, a primary color palette was selected throughout.
