Jacksonville-based Southeast Orthopedic Specialists will open a new, 14,500-square-foot clinic in St. Augustine in January.

The clinic, located at 45 Groover Loop, south of Florida 312 and about 5 miles east of Interstate 95, is the first phase of a 37,000-square-foot medical facility expanding its orthopedic and spine services, according to a Dec. 5 news release.

The building is expected to be completed by August 2025.

Alpharetta, Georgia-based Meadows & Ohly, through SR 207 MOB LLC, owns the land. The company purchased the property for about $2.3 million in August.

The project broke ground on the three-phase project in November 2023, according to spokesperson David Lozano.

Phase one is the 14,500-square-foot preventative care clinic, the release said. A 4,800-square-foot imaging center is planned for March, followed by an ambulatory surgery center in August.

When completed, the facility is projected to treat more than 26,000 patients annually, the release said. It will have four operating rooms, 23 clinic exam rooms, two interventional pain management suites, an interventional radiology suite for diagnosis and treatment and one MRI suite.
