Open For Business

Sorry it's taken so long to post anything, but as you can guess we've been very busy.

Thank you so much to everyone who gave their time to help us put together furniture and move heavy exam tables. Without you I'd still be trying to get us opened!

So here are a lot of pictures of our clinic.

The outside door.

Towards the exam rooms.

We Have Floors!

I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Getting Closer

Well, we are finally here!  In Ft Worth, that is (staying with mom and dad for the time being).  Moved from St Louis earlier this week and have hit the ground running, trying to get this clinic opened up!  There is a lot to do, but we are looking at having the permit from the city the week of the 15th (probably at the end of that week).

The construction is at the taping and bedding phase.  They will start painting soon, then the floors, then the final coats of paint.  So we should be getting some nice pictures soon.  The following pics were taken with my iPhone.  Enjoy!

I should have some more pictures to post soon, but in the mean time here are a few with a little more detail, still from the dryall phase.

Slow Week

Well, I'm sure stuff is going on with the build out, but not being there really puts a damper on being able to report on it.  The contractor said he'd send us some pictures "next week", so let's hope he remembers.

Pictures!!!

Big thanks to my dad and mom for driving out to the building and taking pictures.  Hooray for mom and dad!  Especially because they captured what it looked like before the walls went up.  Yes, "looked" like.  The walls are already going up (according to the contractor).

Looking West

The square footage is about 2434.  The view above is actually taken from within another suite.  Our suite ends just before the third pole on the left.

West straight ahead, North to the right

The little round window will be in the "patient" rest room.

Reception

Here is the scoring of the floor where our rounded reception desk will be.  Just to give you some scale, the distance from the wall with the metal studs to the edge of the reception desk is about 12', the reception area from where the curve starts (furthest from you) to the curve at the left side of the picture is 11.5'.  The angles in the pictures are deceptive.

Little round window is in the lounge

Here's another view of the reception and waiting room.  Once again, the pole closest to you is in the adjacent suite.  Our back wall is the score in the floor just by the third pole.

One last shot (for now) from the back of the clinic.  Right down the middle is the hallway in the staff area.  From the far wall on the right you are seeing the lounge, staff office, my office, then Jan's office. You are standing Jan's office looking at her door.  To the left of the hallway from the metal studs is an exam room, hallway, staff rest room, and the tip of the other exam room.

More later!
