Spotlight on The University of Tennessee Medical Center — Blount County

East Tennessee is a diverse region that includes populations with disparate health outcomes. To address this, UTMC prioritized providing high-quality care locally. The new 20,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility in Blount County was designed to meet the need for a full spectrum of oncology and support services. The building includes exam rooms, infusion bays, and counseling areas, all designed to deliver essential care and promote positive outcomes for patients when they need it most. The development required a strategic plan to meet immediate needs for relocating existing services while maximizing the site’s potential for future healthcare expansions and services, ensuring long-term value and flexibility.

Meadows & Ohly is thrilled to have played a pivotal role in serving as the developer of this facility, which will strengthen the region's healthcare infrastructure. The development team worked collaboratively with the client and design partners to address the critical need for enhanced oncology services. Despite industry-wide challenges such as rising construction costs and supply chain delays, the team delivered the facility on time and under budget—an accomplishment that underscores Meadows & Ohly's expertise and commitment to excellence. The Meadows & Ohly property management team was integrated early in the development process, ensuring a seamless transition as the facility began serving patients. The firm remains dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of the healthcare industry through its comprehensive healthcare real estate solutions.
