Medical Facility to Break Ground Thursday
A new 7,000 square foot medical building will begin construction Thursday.

The Sierra Madre Community Medical Group will begin construction Thursday on a new addition to their practice. A 7,000 square foot building will be erected behind the group’s current location at 147 W Sierra Madre Blvd. See the photo on the right for a rendering of what the new building will look like.
The practice, lead by Dr. Hani Sami, M.D., has been developing plans for the new facility for over a year. Dr. Sami has housed his practice in the current 2,200 square foot building since 2000.
According to an article in the Mountain View News, Dr. Sami said the expansion of his practice will not only provide enhanced services to Sierra Madre, but could provide local care in the aftermath of a large earthquake or other natural disaster.
