ENT Clinic Expansion

Birmingham, Alabama

The renovation and expansion of the ENT clinic at Children’s Pediatric Outpatient Center transformed the facility into a modern, child-friendly environment designed to enhance patient comfort and clinical efficiency. This project expanded the clinic’s capacity by introducing 10 new exam rooms, 3 triage rooms—including an audio triage room—an advanced audio booth, a centralized nurses’ station, and an updated check-in/waiting area.

A key feature of the clinic is the specialized audio booth, designed to accurately assess hearing in pediatric patients. This controlled environment minimizes external noise interference, enabling audiologists and specialists to conduct precise hearing tests critical for diagnosing and treating auditory conditions. The booth’s integration within the clinic streamlines patient care, providing immediate access to advanced hearing assessments in a comfortable, child-friendly setting.

The design prioritizes a welcoming and comforting experience for young patients through vibrant, colorful walls that create a cheerful, engaging atmosphere. Light-filled exam rooms and hallways enhance the sense of openness and warmth, reducing anxiety for children and families while ensuring an optimal work environment for medical staff.

By seamlessly integrating modern clinical functionality with a playful, inviting aesthetic, this renovation and expansion elevate the patient experience while improving operational flow. The enhanced ENT clinic now offers a more efficient, compassionate, and uplifting space for children receiving specialized care at Children’s Pediatric Outpatient Center.
