A Legacy of Care for the Community

Eskenazi Health has served Indianapolis since 1859, growing into one of the region’s most vital healthcare systems. Today, the Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital campus continues that mission, providing care for more than one million outpatient visits each year while remaining rooted in its commitment to serve all of Marion County.

Growing Demand, Increasing Complexity

As healthcare delivery evolved, the need for a highly coordinated outpatient environment became critical. A wide range of clinical services required integration within a single facility, demanding careful planning to ensure efficiency, clarity, and alignment with operational needs, all while adhering to strict schedule and budget parameters.

Coordinating Care Through Design

Synthesis served as Architect of Record for the interior fit-out of the seven-story, 200,000-square-foot Ambulatory Care Building. The team led programming, planning, and design from the lower level through the sixth floor, coordinating building systems and infrastructure to support a complex clinical environment. The facility brings together a broad spectrum of services, including primary care, specialty clinics, women’s health, imaging, pharmacy, and surgical support spaces, all organized to improve access and operational flow. Delivered in collaboration with HOK as Executive Architect, the project aligned design execution with established schedule and budget requirements.

A More Connected Care Experience

The Ambulatory Care Building now provides a cohesive, efficient environment that supports both patients and providers. By integrating diverse services within a single, well-coordinated facility, the project enhances access to care, streamlines operations, and reinforces Eskenazi Health’s mission to serve the community with clarity, dignity, and efficiency.
