Dr. C. Weston Whitten envisioned a comprehensive pain center with a clinic, an ambulatory surgical center, and allied practices for holistic treatment approaches. Davis Design joined the project when Dr. Whitten secured a prime location at the junction of Pine Lake Road and Highway 2 in Lincoln. After several months of design meetings, a program was developed, and schematic plan options began flowing.

A boomerang shape was chosen to maximize the building footprint and address site constraints, fulfilling parking, circulation, and service needs. The facility comprises a 9,000-square-foot clinic on the second floor, a 6,500-square-foot ambulatory surgical center on the first level, and an additional 19,000-square-foot reserved for future tenants. Natural light floods the space, enhancing the design’s harmony with dynamic elements like brick, natural stone, and a sleek metal panel system, creating an integrated and inviting architectural aesthetic.
