“WE DIDN’T HAVE TO CLOSE DOWN, AND WE HAD VERY LITTLE DOWNTIME WHICH WAS REALLY GOOD FOR BUSINESS.”

Dr Samantha Ho

Project background

They faced the challenge of expanding their space while maintaining day-to-day operations. The opportunity arose when the tenancy next door became available, presenting a perfect solution for their growth needs. However, the project posed several challenges, including working above operating retail shops, managing core-holing and plumbing installations, and ensuring minimal noise disruption for neighbouring businesses. Additionally, the project required a complete refit of the existing practice alongside the integration of the new tenancy. These factors demanded careful planning to achieve a seamless dental practice fitout without disrupting their ability to deliver current patient appointments or compromising their level of care.

Solution

OPTIMA delivered a thoughtfully staged solution to address these challenges. First, we fitted out the new tenancy to create a fully functional space, allowing the dental practice to relocate its operations temporarily. This ensured that the business experienced no downtime during the transition. Once the practice had moved, we undertook the refit of the existing space, upgrading it to the same high standard as the new area. Finally, we created an opening between the two tenancies, uniting them into one cohesive, 5-chair dental practice. This methodical approach minimised disruptions and delivered an outstanding result for both the client and their patients.

Key benefits

The benefits of this dental practice fitout were transformative. The seamless expansion allowed the client to grow from a 2-chair practice to a state-of-the-art 5-chair facility, positioning them to meet future demand with ease and further ingrain themselves in the local community which they call home. The newly expanded space offers stunning ocean views and an abundance of natural light, enhancing the overall mood of the space and elevating the patient experience. Most importantly, the project was completed with minimal downtime, ensuring uninterrupted care for patients and a smooth transition for the dental team.
