Dr. Austin A. “Tony” Adams Family Practice




Owner: Dr. Austin “Tony” Adams
Location: 321 Quecreek Circle, Smyrna, Tennessee
Project Delivery: Design-Build
Project Scope: Pre-construction services and new construction of a medical clinic
Just before Dr. Adams’ lease was about to expire, he decided it made good financial sense to build his own facility, rather than renew his lease. With our help, Dr. Adams was able to determine the building cost variance on potential construction sites and fast-track the construction process.
The new 4,100-square-foot facility includes seven exam rooms, a treatment room, an x-ray room, nurses’ stations, reception and waiting area, a laboratory and a functional layout for administration.
The exterior of the building is faced with Hardie board, brick and stacked stone for a rustic, yet professional appearance. The entire project was completed in four months.
“Dow has an excellent reputation for being hands-on, honest and transparent. Joey Rhyne is a numbers, get-it-done detail guy. That’s the type of person I am. With these two, the whole project could not have gone any better, from start to finish.””
When it comes to establishing or expanding a commercial operation, one of the most critical decisions business owners and executives face is whether to lease a commercial space or build a ground-up facility. Both options have their merits, and the choice ultimately depends on your business goals, financial situation, and long-term vision. As a design-build firm, we understand the complexities of this decision and aim to provide clarity on the benefits and advantages of each option.
