Medical Real Estate Services

Medical space—from primary care offices to imaging centers and multi-specialty groups—has specialized requirements that must be considered before a lease is signed or a property is purchased. I represent medical practices and healthcare groups across Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area, helping them identify suitable properties, negotiate favorable terms, and plan for long-term growth.

What Makes Medical Real Estate Different

Specialized Infrastructure

Medical offices often require exam rooms, procedure rooms, dedicated HVAC systems, enhanced electrical capacity, medical gas where applicable, and ADA-compliant patient access. I evaluate whether a space can realistically support these requirements before you commit.

Healthcare Regulations and Permitting

Medical practices require careful review of zoning, permitted medical use, parking requirements, accessibility standards, and local permitting. These factors must align with your specialty and daily operations to avoid delays and unexpected costs.

Patient Experience Matters

Location, accessibility, visibility, parking, and building design all influence the patient experience. The right property should make it easy for patients to reach your practice while supporting efficient clinical operations.

Complex Buildouts and Capital Investment

Medical office buildouts can require significant investment in specialized improvements. I negotiate lease terms that help protect that investment, including tenant improvement allowances, rent abatement, renewal options, and flexibility for future expansion.

Long-Term Practice Strategy

Whether you are leasing or purchasing, your real estate should support your long-term business goals. I help structure terms that provide expansion opportunities, favorable renewal rights, ownership options, and the flexibility to adapt as your practice grows.

Frequently Asked Questions

The right parking ratio depends on your specialty, staffing levels, appointment volume, and patient turnover. I evaluate parking availability against comparable practices in the local market before recommending a property, because an attractive space with inadequate parking can negatively affect patient access.
Often, yes. Equipment weight, electrical demand, shielding, medical gas, ventilation, and structural requirements may affect both the property and the lease terms governing alterations. I identify these issues early during site selection and negotiation.
