For healthcare practice owners, parking is often the first challenge to solve in the design and construction of a new facility.

It affects planning, access, and the overall experience, but when site size is limited, it can be the first thing that's compromised.

Our design approach: creative problem solving.

Undercroft parking can be a strategic way to maximise site potential, particularly on constrained blocks where at-grade parking would take valuable space away from the practice itself.

By integrating parking beneath the building footprint, more of the site can be utilised for clinical rooms, staff areas, patient amenities and enabling future growth. It can also support a more seamless arrival experience, helping patients move from car to reception with greater ease and confidence.

We have never met a patient who complained about having too many car parks to choose from. But when parking is limited, unclear or difficult to access, it can quickly become their first pain point.

PROJECT UPDATE | Medical Practice New Build
Stage: Joinery install

This purpose-built medical facility on Victoria’s Surf Coast continues to take shape, with the internal fitout now moving into a defining stage.

Joinery installation is well underway across the double storey practice, bringing shape, function, and finish into the clinical spaces. As cabinetry, workstations, storage, and key operational areas come together, the project is beginning to show the level of detail that will support both patient care and day-to-day workflow.

With completion now firmly in sight, the focus turns to the future of the practice itself: the clinical workflows it will support, the ownership journey it represents, and the Surf Coast community it will soon serve.

PROJECT UPDATE | Dental Practice Fitout, NSW

Amazing progress on site at one of our fitout projects in New South Wales.

See where the space is today, then look back at how far it has come over the past few months.

With walls, services and key spaces now taking shape, the next stage will see more of the finishes and detail come together.

EVENT | RACGP Practice Owners Conference 2026

What an amazing weekend at the Practice Owners Conference at

It was inspiring to talk to so many ambitious doctors, GP practice owners, and future industry leaders who are looking to take the next step in their practice ownership journey.

What we took from the event was that the future of general practice is being shaped by practice owners who care deeply about the spaces they create, but more importantly the impact their environment can have on patients, staff, and the communities they serve.

Thank you to RACGP for hosting such a valuable event, and to everyone who took the time to connect with us over the weekend.

We look forward to continuing the conversation.

"It's built to grow with us. It's a very modern environment and I think we are allowing patients to see what we can offer them."

Dental.Affect is Dr Chris's third build with OPTIMA.

For any practice owner, choosing a design and build partner is a defining moment. Dr Chris has made that decision three times - and each time, returned to the same team.

That's not something we take lightly.

There are projects defined by their brief, and there are projects defined by their ambition. This is the latter.

This ground-up health hub represents one of the most comprehensive primary and specialist health precincts we've had the opportunity to design and build. GP, allied health, pharmacy, radiology, dental, and specialist care within a unified facility, built to the standard of somewhere people genuinely want to be.

That standard starts at the entrance. A grand lobby anchors the building across both levels, with an atmosphere that shifts the tone from clinical to communal. Natural light carries through the building as a design requirement rather than an afterthought. Generous parking removes the friction that too often defines the patient experience before they've even walked through the door.

The ambition behind this project runs deeper than the building itself. Consolidating this breadth of services in one place creates a healthcare destination the surrounding community can genuinely rely on.

This project will set a new standard for what healthcare can look like in regional Australia.

We're looking forward to bringing this one to life and sharing the journey.

For many specialists, the consulting suite is where the patient relationship begins, long before any procedure or treatment plan. The role this environment plays in building patient trust should never be underestimated.

For patients already navigating an anxious time, a well-designed consulting space needs to:
· Build confidence in the specialist and the practice
· Create a sense of calm that patients feel the moment they walk in
· Meet people at their most vulnerable and genuinely reassure them
· Reflect the high standard of care the specialist delivers

From neurosurgeons and radiologists to oncologists, plastic surgeons, and fertility specialists, the consultation is a significant moment in a patient's journey. The space needs to honour that.

When the end of a practice owner's lease approaches, decisions follow.

Many leave the decision too late to actually allow time to weigh up and map out the best path forward. By the time the pressure arrives, the best options are already off the table.

Renew. Relocate. Invest in ownership.

Each path is viable - but each one demands a timeline that starts well before the lease runs out.

We've helped practice owners navigate this decision for decades. The earlier the conversation, the better the outcome.

Swipe through to understand your options and what planning ahead actually looks like.
