Medical Office Space in Salt Lake City

Build-out

Why medical office is not office space with a different sign

A dental or medical suite needs plumbing to each operatory, dedicated power for equipment, lead-lined walls where imaging is involved, an accessible route from the parking stall to the exam room, and a waiting area that does not put patients in a corridor. Almost none of that exists in a standard office suite.

The result is that a landlord quoting you a market office rate is usually quoting a shell, and the build-out is where the deal is actually decided. We price the all-in number, including what the improvements cost and who pays for them.

Stall count

Parking is the constraint nobody checks early

General office runs about four stalls per 1,000 SF in this valley. A practice seeing patients on a schedule needs more, because staff, patients arriving, and patients leaving overlap. A suite that works on paper can fail on parking, and that is a lease clause rather than a floor plan question.

We check the ratio and the shared-parking language before you tour, not after you have paid an architect.

Submarkets

Where the suites are

Medical and dental clusters in the valley sit around the hospital campuses and along the Fort Union, Murray, and Cottonwood corridors, which is where our office record is concentrated. The firm closed 71 office leases under the CRE Specialists name, 2017 through July 2026.

The comp data files medical office under office, so the medical and dental leases we have signed do not appear as medical in any public count. A medical figure pulled from that data would understate the work, and one built any other way would be invented, which is why the count above is the office one.

Inventory

What we have available now

Suite 100 at the Union Park Medical Building in Sandy, 4,400 SF in partial shell condition and able to be demised. The building went up in 2020 and the co-tenant is a plastic surgery center, so the shell is already sized for practice use rather than needing to be argued into it. Covered parking, and minutes from The Shops at Fort Union.

That is one suite, not a portfolio. When the medical inventory is thin we say so rather than padding the page, and the search still runs through buildings other brokers control.

Confirmed available as of September 16, 2026

Landlords

If you own a medical building

Vacancy in a medical building costs more than vacancy in general office, because the improvements are already in the space and they only suit one kind of tenant. Getting the right practice in matters more than getting a tenant in quickly. We market to practices and to the brokers who represent them rather than posting a rate and waiting.
