Medical Office & Clinic Interior Design in Vancouver
Ark & Mason designs and builds medical offices, physiotherapy clinics and medi-spas in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.
One team handles the layout and interior design, the permit drawings and application, and construction management through to handover, so your clinic is planned around patient flow, privacy and code from day one rather than fixed on site.
Design, permits and construction under one contract
Clinics need private treatment rooms with sound control, plumbing to several rooms, finishes that stand up to constant cleaning, and staff routes that avoid the waiting area. When the designer, permit drawings and contractor are separate, those needs fall into the gaps.
Interior design and space planning
Reception, waiting, treatment, staff and storage zones.
Drawings and permit support
Consultants coordinated, application submitted where required. See our Vancouver building permits guide.
Construction management
Trades, site, inspections and sign-offs to handover.
Clinics we design
Medical and doctor offices
Exam rooms, reception, charting and staff areas.
Physiotherapy and rehab
Private rooms beside open gym space, as at Physiolab.
Medi-spas
Calm, spa-like interiors that meet clinical needs, as at Euphora MD.
Multi-location brands
Repeatable standards per suite, as with Physiolab.
Dental and specialty
The same design, permit and construction process applies.
What medical office design must solve
Patient journey
Clear arrival, calm waiting and an intuitive route to treatment.

What Our Customers Say
Frequently asked questions
Do you design medical offices and clinics in Vancouver?
Yes. Our clinic projects include Physiolab and Euphora MD.
Can one company handle clinic design and construction?
Yes. We handle design, permit support and construction management under one contract.
Do I need a building permit for a clinic renovation?
Most clinic tenant improvements do, plus trade permits. We prepare and submit the application.
How is medical office design different from an office?
A clinic needs private treatment rooms, cleanable finishes, plumbing and planned staff circulation.
How long does a clinic fit-out take?
It depends on scope. Physiolab Hastings (1,550 sq ft) was a 10-week build.
How much does a medical office build-out cost?
It depends on size and services. We set the budget before drawings are finalized.
Do you work with multi-location brands?
Yes. Physiolab has engaged us for more than one clinic.
Should I contact you before signing a lease?
Yes. An early look surfaces plumbing, layout and permit issues.
Do you design dental offices?
The same process applies to dental and other specialty clinics. Contact us to talk through your project.
