At Peconic Bay Medical Center in Riverhead, New York, SBLM Architects designs an imaging center that unites advanced technology with a patient-centered environment. MRI, CT scan, X-ray, mammography, ultrasound, and bone-density testing are all located under one roof, allowing patients to move through a single facility with confidence and ease. The design reduces unnecessary transfers between departments and creates a sense of continuity from arrival to recovery.

The center prioritizes intuitive circulation. Open corridors guide patients naturally and prevent confusion, while controlled lighting and natural materials soften the environment and reduce anxiety. A dedicated women’s suite supports privacy and dignity, offering a focused space for care that feels respectful and comfortable.

For staff, the plan introduces clearly defined zones that streamline movement and support efficiency. The arrangement of rooms and pathways strengthens coordination, enabling providers to focus more on patient connection and less on operational hurdles. Every decision—from finishes to adjacencies—is made to foster trust and provide clarity in an often stressful setting.

This project reflects SBLM’s philosophy that healthcare design must balance advanced clinical capability with human-centered care. The imaging center becomes more than a place for testing; it is a place where patients feel calm, staff feel supported, and architecture actively contributes to healing.
