Scenic serenity
HSS Florida uses the natural
beauty of its southeastern
Palm Beach location to put
patients at ease from the
moment they set foot in the
facility. The spacious lobby
uses a combination of natural
light and stunning views of the
Atlantic Ocean to set the tone
for the surgical experience.
Ryan W. Simovitch, MD, a
sports medicine and shoulder
surgeon and the associate
medical director of ambulatory
services at HSS Florida, says
the leadership team was
adamant about designing a
welcoming environment. That's why the waiting
area, which includes a calming color scheme of
pastel blues and grays and a wall that's meant to
resemble driftwood, features floor-to-ceiling win-
dows offering sweeping ocean-facing views of
intracoastal Palm Beach Island. The design sets a
serene scene that is carried throughout the entire
facility, says Dr. Simovitch.
