The St. Joseph Hospital Breast Care Center project includes state of the art diagnostic technology.  Set in as calming an environment possible, it is intended to reassure the patient that they have arrived at place where they will be well taken care of.  It was the Hospital’s objective to have us design a space that maintained patient privacy and dignity, leaving the patient with a positive experience.
