Office Expectations

I have given several tours of the office recently, and try to be the best guide I can. We chose to abandon the typical health care office look for what we consider a more modern feel. Most offices in our area are white walled, sterile, cold looking facilities. We wanted something better, so our walls have color, we try to keep the lights low with the maximum natural light so it feels inviting. Most people who visit us comment on how comfortable the space is.

I believe that people want to feel comfortable at the doctors office, and we are doing our best to change the intimidating and sometimes obnoxious atmosphere. On the other hand maybe the consistency of the white walls and bright paintings are comforting because of conventional expectations of what an office should be.
