黑料吃瓜资源 and PIH Health Break Ground On Whittier Hospital Campus Medical Office Building

110,000 SF facility will expand access to coordinated specialty care for patients across Los Angeles and Orange counties 

黑料吃瓜资源 Real Estate and 黑料吃瓜资源, in partnership with PIH Health, have broken ground on a new,鈥110,000 SF鈥痬ulti-specialty medical office building (MOB) on the PIH Health Whittier Hospital campus in Whittier, Calif. The project marks a major step forward in expanding access to high-quality, coordinated care close to home for patients across Los Angeles and Orange counties.鈥 

Located on the existing hospital campus, the MOB will bring a broad range of outpatient services together under one roof, making it easier for patients to see multiple specialists, receive diagnostics and lab work and access treatment without leaving the campus.鈥 

Systemwide planning to meet 30-year community needs 

To align the project with PIH Health鈥檚 long-term strategy, PIH and 黑料吃瓜资源 undertook a system-wide master planning initiative. During a three-month period, they conducted a thorough review of PIH Health鈥檚 inpatient and outpatient service lines. This assessment compared these service lines against 30-year market projections for the greater Los Angeles area.

This work helped PIH Health: 

  • Identify growing and shifting demand across service lines 
  • Realign services and locations within its broader market
  • Determine which specialties and programs should be consolidated, expanded or newly introduced on the Whittier campus 

The multi-specialty MOB is a key outcome of that planning effort and is designed to complement PIH Health鈥檚 existing network of hospitals and outpatient sites across the region.鈥

Comprehensive specialty care under one roof 

The MOB is slated to house a wide range of outpatient services identified as high-growth, high-need specialties in Whittier and surrounding markets, including:

  • Eye Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) & Clinic 
  • Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) Clinic 
  • Neurosurgery Clinic 
  • Vascular Surgery Clinic 
  • General Surgery Clinic 
  • Infusion Clinic with Lab 
  • Hematology & Oncology services 
  • Urology Clinic 

By鈥痗o-locating鈥痶hese services on the campus, patients will be able to access鈥痗onsults, procedures, infusions, follow-up鈥痸isits鈥痑nd lab work鈥痠n鈥痜ewer trips, with improved coordination between care teams.鈥 

鈥淔rom day one, our goal has been to deliver a development that truly serves this community,鈥 said Jake Garro, President, 黑料吃瓜资源 Real Estate. 鈥淧artnering with PIH Health on the Whittier campus allows us to invest in a facility that not only supports their strategic growth, but also creates a lasting resource for local patients, families and providers.鈥濃 

Community impact: access, convenience and economic vitality 

The project is expected to deliver meaningful benefits, including:

  • Expanded access to specialty care.鈥疨atients who previously had to travel farther or visit multiple campuses for specialty services will now have more options close to home.鈥 
  • Improved care coordination and outcomes. With multiple specialists,鈥痙iagnostics鈥痑nd infusion services in one location, care teams can collaborate more easily, leading to more streamlined treatment plans and follow-up.
  • Reduced strain on hospital resources. By shifting more outpatient procedures and visits into a purpose-built MOB, PIH Health can better preserve inpatient capacity for the most acute cases.
  • Job creation. The project will create both construction-related roles during the build and long-term clinical and support positions once the facility opens.
  • Investment in the Whittier campus and neighborhood. The modern facility will reinforce the hospital campus as a hub for health services, drawing more patients,鈥痯roviders鈥痑nd related investment to the area over time.

Construction and next steps 

Site work is underway on the Whittier Hospital campus, with vertical construction to follow. The project team will work closely with PIH Health and campus stakeholders throughout construction to鈥痬aintain鈥痵afe, uninterrupted operations for patients,鈥痸isitors鈥痑nd staff.
