“The construction and development of this new medical office building will bring an economic boost to the Caro region,” Putman said. “The $7 million investment will also boost other areas of commerce in the community.”

CARO — A pandemic-friendly groundbreaking ceremony took place last month for the new Medical Office Building in Caro, a 42,000 square foot facility being built and operated by Putman Developing, that will include medical services including primary care, specialty care, imaging, and laboratory services through McLaren Caro Region.
The groundbreaking ceremony featured William E. Putman of Putman Developing, administrators from McLaren Caro Region, as well as many members of the Putman family.
According to Putman, the project, which is estimated to be completed by late 2021, will add 230 construction trade jobs to build the project over the next 12 months as well as 122 jobs within the facility upon its completion.
“The construction and development of this new medical office building will bring an economic boost to the Caro region,” Putman said. “The $7 million investment will also boost other areas of commerce in the community.”
“We look forward to continuing to serve the needs of this beautiful community,” he added.
According to Magen Samyn, McLaren’s regional vice president of marketing and business development, while McLaren Caro Region will lease approximately 20,000 square feet of space in the new medical office building, there will be other amenities as well, like a bistro and valet parking at the facility.
“It is the goal of Putman Developing to provide a first-class patient care setting,” Samyn said. “The plan for this space is to be an extraordinary place to receive care, so patients can focus on healing.”
Although McLaren Caro Region will continue to offer similar services for the community and hospital inpatients, the medical office building will be a one-stop-shop for outpatients.
“This space is a great opportunity to have ambulatory services conveniently offered at one location,” Samyn said. “It’s much more convenient to see your primary or specialty care physician and take care of any follow up testing at one location.”
“We believe this will set McLaren apart from other facilities in the Upper Thumb area,” she said.
In addition to the services offered by McLaren Caro Region, the new medical office building will include urology services, a chiropractic clinic, a pharmacy, physical therapy and other specialty services.
“McLaren Caro Region is proud to be a part of this project and offer many of our services in one great location,” said Michael Johnston, President and CEO of McLaren Caro Region. “The new Medical Office Building will provide a patient-focused experience for our patients and will enhance their health and wellness.”
“Our goal is to stay as patient focused as possible, making the medical treatment process as easy, convenient, and comforting,” Samyn added.
The new Medical Office Building will be located at 1796 W. Caro Road, Caro, MI 48723
