Scheduled to begin construction in Q2 of 2025 and aim for a grand opening in Q1 of 2026, the facility will provide eye care and physical therapy services. This expansion is part of a larger 250-acre development that promises to bring a variety of amenities to the area, solidifying UHealth’s commitment to community health and wellness in South Florida.

Doral Welcomes Exciting Expansion from University of Miami Health System

Residents of Downtown Doral, get ready for some thrilling news! The University of Miami Health System (UHealth) has just announced a significant new addition to the community. UHealth has signed a lease for a shiny new facility that will occupy a whopping 11,243 square feet in the heart of the ongoing retail expansion.

A Quick Snapshot of the Upcoming Facility

So, what’s all the fuss about? This retail expansion will ultimately stretch to 25,000 square feet. It’s conveniently located at a busy intersection—N.W. 87th Avenue and N.W. 53rd Terrace—perfect for easy access. But hold onto your hats, because the construction is slated to kick off in the second quarter of 2025, with the grand opening aimed for the first quarter of 2026.

Once up and running, this community gem is set to provide a range of healthcare services that cater to eye care enthusiasts and those in need of physical therapy. It’s all part of UHealth’s mission to expand vital health services in a bustling urban center.

Growing the UHealth Family

This new facility significantly enhances UHealth’s already impressive footprint in Downtown Doral. It’s part of an exciting 250-acre phased development that has been generating buzz and charm in the area. This development features a vibrant mix of amenities, including 40 shops and restaurants, 150,000 square feet of office space, 5,000 residential units, two charter schools, and even the Doral Government Center! That’s a lot going on!

Building on Success

By the way, UHealth is no stranger to the area. Just last November, they opened the impressive UHealth Doral Medical Center, a 160,000-square-foot facility that offers everything from cancer care to orthopedics. That location was made possible thanks to the efforts of Robins & Morton, the general contractor who helped make this vision a reality.

What Does This Mean for the Community?

The folks at UHealth understand the importance of expanding their services to the local community. This new facility will not only provide health services but will also allow them to reach a larger population in South Florida. UHealth is recognized as the only true academic health system in the region, and they are constantly on the lookout for innovative, research-heavy healthcare solutions to enhance community well-being.

Future Plans Under New Leadership

17,000-square-foot facility, UHealth is capturing attention across South Florida.

Conclusion: Doral is on the Rise!

As we anticipate the development of this new UHealth facility, it’s evident that Downtown Doral is on the rise. With a growing healthcare presence and an influx of businesses and residential spaces, the area is becoming a dynamic urban center where wellness meets convenience. For residents and visitors alike, UHealth’s expansion is just one of the many reasons to look forward to what this vibrant community has to offer in the coming years.
