CHI St. Vincent to Expand WLR Campus

2 min read

CHI St. Vincent will expand its west Little Rock satellite campus with the construction of a 44,000-SF medical office building, it announced Wednesday.

The facility will be located next to CHI St. Vincent’s outpatient facility on the 37-acre campus. The expansion is expected to be complete by summer 2015. Current services at CHI St. Vincent West include primary care, urgent care, geriatric and sleep services.

Mohr Health of Dallas and local commercial real estate firm Irwin Partners will develop the project, according to a news release.

“We are creating a destination for health care at CHI St. Vincent West that offers the programs and services that most directly address the needs of the residents of west Little Rock. This second building is part of a long-term phased growth plan to accomplish just that,” said Peter Banko, President and CEO of CHI St. Vincent, in the release. “Mohr Health and Irwin Partners are excellent partners for our health system and they are playing a very pivotal role in developing the area’s newest health care campus.”

More: Also on Wednesday, CHI St. Vincent announced that Banko had been promoted by parent company Catholic Health Initiatives to oversee the hospitals in its east/southeast division.  

The first floor of the new facility will house a full complement of CHI St. Vincent outpatient imaging services, including MRI, CT and ultrasound, plus dental offices for Michael Pohlkamp D.D.S. Family Dentistry as well as a Cornerstone Pharmacy.  

Additional space will be used to expand the CHI St. Vincent Breast Center and other women’s services, according to the release, with 26,000-SF remaining for lease in this phase of the campus expansion.

“The demand for quality medical office space in west Little Rock is continuing to grow,” said Jim Irwin, principal broker with Irwin Partners. “This building will provide the opportunity for medical practices and other businesses offering medical-related services to open a new or satellite location in west Little Rock.”

Cromwell Architects, Clark Contractors and White Daters & Associates Engineers round out the project team. Greg Joslin, a principal with Irwin Partners, will serve as the leasing agent for the project.
