How much does a medical office interior design project cost?

Costs range from $20,000 for reception and waiting area refreshes to $200,000+ for full buildouts, depending on square footage, equipment needs, and finish selections. We provide a detailed estimate during the consultation.

Can you design for a startup medical practice?

Yes. Startups are a core part of our business. We've handled complete buildouts from empty commercial space to fully operational medical office. We understand building codes, equipment placement, ADA requirements, and operational details that startups often miss in planning.

What's the difference between HIPAA-compliant design and general office design?

HIPAA-compliant design requires private patient spaces, sound isolation, secure storage areas, and confidential conversation zones. A general designer won't understand these requirements or build them into the layout. Regulatory compliance affects patient trust and legal liability.

Can you design for specialty practices like PT, chiropractic, or med spa?

Yes. We've designed multiple specialty medical practices. Each has unique layout requirements, equipment placement needs, and patient experience considerations. We know what works operationally and what patients expect from each specialty.

How long does a typical medical office design project take?

Design and approval: 3-4 weeks. Buildout: 8-16 weeks depending on scope and whether it's new construction or remodel. Remodels typically have more surprises, so timelines are longer.

Can you help with window treatments and biophilic design?

Yes. We partner with West Shade Co for custom window treatments, automated blinds, and durable medical-grade fabrics. We also incorporate plants and natural design elements into waiting rooms and reception areas to reduce patient stress and create calming environments.

From waiting room psychology to exam room efficiency to HIPAA-compliant layouts, every design decision is built around patient experience and clinical workflow.

About

Why Choose Salt City Interiors for Your Medical Practice

Ashley Ivie founded Salt City Interiors after a life-changing accident. Recovering in medical and dental offices, she noticed something: many clinical spaces felt cold and uninviting. The best medical practices, she realized, are led by people who care about patient experience. That starts with space design.

With 15 years of commercial interior design experience and work exclusively in medical and dental buildouts, Ashley brings clinical expertise to every project. We've designed Alpine Airway Wellness and multiple dental practices across the region, giving us insight into both medical and dental patient psychology, regulatory requirements, and operational flow.

Our Reviews

"Salt City Interiors was amazing! I remodeled and redesigned my entire dental practice and it would not have turned out nearly as nice without the expertise that Ashley brought to the project. She made my life so much easier. I had a concept in mind and Ashley was great to listen to what I was hoping for, and then bring that idea to a reality in a way that was beyond what I originally expected. She is truly talented and I couldn’t be more happy with how my office turned out."
