The new Integrative Medicine and Wellness Center building for Family Health Centers of San Diego (FHCSD) will bring together a variety of health and wellness services into one cohesive center, supporting the group’s commitment to providing affordable, high-quality healthcare and supportive services to uninsured, low-income and medically underserved communities.
New Integrative Medicine and Wellness Center Will Support Community Health and Wellness
The net zero, 73,500-square-foot, four-story Integrative Medicine and Wellness Center building will include the FHCSD administration and grant writing departments and a health clinic. In addition, FHCSD will use the facility to learn more about the community and explore ways to improve outcomes. The building will house the Laura Rodriguez Research Institute, a research and development department developed in partnership with the University of California, San Diego; a running track for biometric analysis and evaluation; and a demonstration kitchen for public health and wellness classes.
“The facility is designed to assemble parts and pieces that will function better together and improve the community’s overall health and wellness,” says LPA Director of Mixed Use Matthew Winter.
