最初的办公室方案有一个朝北的入口，但却没有使用，取而代之的是大楼一侧一个更隐蔽的入口。这导致了办公室内部的几个程序上的困难，在医生和病人交通拥挤的情况下，剖析了工作场所的各种重要因素。鉴于这些障碍，翻修的首要目标是恢复办事处的北入口，从而恢复有效的方案布局和工作流程。这一新的入口成为了改造中最引人注目的外部元素，它是一堵浇筑的混凝土墙，它与一系列抽象的脱节钢管一起充当了新的入口法庭的一个屏障。

The original scheme for the office had a North-facing entry that had gone unused in exchange for a more concealed entry on the side of the building.  This led to several programmatic difficulties inside the office, dissecting various important workplace elements with cramped doctor and patient traffic.  In light of such hinderances, the foremost goal for the renovation was to restore the North entry to the office, thereby restoring an efficient programmatic layout and work flow.  This renewed entry became the most striking exterior element in the renovation, with a poured-in-place concrete wall that along with a series of abstractly disjointed steel pipes acted as a screen for the new entry court.

一个新的大厅、接待处和候诊室作为一个新的公共领域一起创建，而实验室则集中在办公室，以便更接近其他工作场所。这为病人提供了更适当的隐私，增加了医生和工作人员的工作流量。新的现代家具和标志帮助完成了整个中世纪现代美学的办公室。

A new lobby, reception desk, and waiting room were created together as a new public domain, while the lab was centralized in the office so as to be closer to the other workplace facets.  This allowed for more appropriate privacy for patients and an increased work flow for the doctors and staff.  New modern furnishings and signage helped to complete the over all mid-century modern aesthetic of the office.
