Holland Hospital Saugatuck Medical Office Building begins construction

SAUGATUCK, MI– Holland Hospital has served West Michigan for more than 100 years with facilities in Holland, Zeeland, Grand Haven, Douglas and South Haven. The completion of Holland Hospital Medical Building in Saugatuck during the Spring of 2024 will serve the health care needs of residents from the Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville, Pullman and Hamilton areas as well as all of Allegan County.

The 16,940-square-foot medical building, conveniently located off Blue Star Highway will support 28,000 patients annually. Focusing on patient convenience, the Holland Hospital Medical Office Building will offer primary care, lab, expanded radiology services including X-ray, echo cardiograms and ultrasounds, expedited lab services, and optimal space for exercise and recovery for physical therapy and rehabilitation. The Family Medicine office will accommodate up to seven providers seeing patients daily providing increased access to convenient same/next day appointments, walk-in and virtual care. As Holland Hospital looks to the future, additional specialties may be incorporated into the facility and could include endocrinology, gastroenterology, general surgery, neurology, rheumatology and urology.

The building forms and material selections create an identifiable structure nestled within the wooded environs of the site. Exterior materials strengthen the presence of Holland Hospital’s main campus in Holland, MI and complement the rich character of Saugatuck. Interior finishes include warm tones and nature inspired color ways which reflect the scenic waterways and grassy dunes to ground the spaces and comfort users and staff.
