RDG in the Media: Steindler Orthopedic Medical Office Building & Ambulatory Surgery Center Featured
Healthcare Snapshots features RDG's design for the Steindler Orthopedic Medical Office Building & Ambulatory Surgery Center in North Liberty, Iowa.
The Steindler Orthopedic Medical Office Building & Ambulatory Surgery Center in North Liberty, Iowa, integrates advanced clinical care with thoughtful design to support Steindler Orthopedic’s mission of delivering exceptional outcomes. As one of Iowa’s largest orthopedic practices, Steindler partnered with RDG Planning & Design to create a centralized environment that co-locates clinic and surgical services, streamlining operations while elevating the patient experience.
The 83,426-SF facility emphasizes efficiency, privacy and comfort. Drawing on an “onstage/offstage” service model, the layout separates patient and staff circulation to support better workflow and promote more personal interactions between patients and providers. Warm wood accents, ceramic tile and decorative lighting elements create a welcoming atmosphere that reflects the practice’s long-standing commitment to compassionate care.
The facility houses 42 double-entry exam rooms, a radiology suite with MRI, CT and X-ray capabilities, pain management and spinal procedure spaces, and a dedicated casting room. A six-room ambulatory surgery center features double-entry operating rooms to maintain separation between patient and service flow and centralized sterilization and staging areas to meet the specific demands of orthopedic procedures. Patients also have access to on-site physical as well as hand therapy areas and convenient fitting and retail for durable medical equipment.
Completed in March 2025, the new medical office building represents a significant investment in the future of orthopedic care in eastern Iowa and marks a new chapter in Steindler’s 75-year legacy.
