Our Irvine Location

Overall Space

From the beginning, the landscaping and plant designs were selected with wellness in mind. The design team wanted to ensure that both the indoor and outdoor spaces promote wellness, taking into account soothing color schemes and tones, oxygen production through the living plant walls, and natural textures. The space includes:

• An outdoor wooden deck on the first floor features a noise-blocking wall that will be used for Tai Chi sessions and other activities.
• The first floor will primarily be used for group patient visits, community classes and programs.
• The second-floor patient waiting rooms feature accordion doors that open to an outdoor terrace, which allows for patients to sit inside or outside.
• The clinic space features two living plant walls (“living walls”) that have a built-in self-irrigation system.

Clinic Space

The clinic space includes:

• exam rooms
• treatment rooms
• procedure rooms
• consult rooms
• pharmacy and compounding room
• lab
• infusion suite
• cardiac rehab space

Mussallem Nutritional Education Center

The Samueli Institute’s executive chef conducts patient education and cooking classes in the nutritional education center. This space is also available for student and faculty/staff workshops as well as interprofessional education and community offerings. 

• The hoods over each cook station are unique because they provide an unobstructed view from the participants to the instructor.
• Each cooking station has its own audio-visual display so participants can see up close and in detail what the instructor is cooking or preparing. This enhances the learning experience.
• The space has broadcasting capabilities to engage with participants who are unable to attend in person. This will broaden our ability to reach and serve people locally, nationally and even internationally.

Cardiac Rehab

• The cardiac rehab room has exercise equipment for patients.
• It also has a dedicated patient education classroom for patients to learn tangible ways to improve their cardiac and overall health.

Activity Rooms

• Two activity rooms have the ability to transform into one larger activity room.
• Both of these spaces have floor-to-ceiling windows. Both rooms are equipped with display monitors and the ability to host hybrid classes both in-person and virtually.
• These rooms will be used for Tai Chi, mindfulness and other activities.
