Frequently Asked Questions

View All FAQs

? Which hospitals are in San Leandro?

San Leandro has two hospitals with emergency departments. Kaiser Permanente's San Leandro Medical Center at 2500 Merced Street opened in June 2014 with 216 licensed beds, a 24-hour emergency department, labor and delivery and a neonatal ICU. San Leandro Hospital at 13855 East 14th Street is a 91-bed hospital with an emergency department, operated by the public Alameda Health System. Alameda Health System's Fairmont Hospital and John George Psychiatric Hospital also carry San Leandro addresses on Foothill Boulevard and Fairmont Drive.

? Who runs San Leandro Hospital?

San Leandro Hospital is operated by Alameda Health System, the public hospital authority that also runs Highland Hospital in Oakland and Alameda Hospital. Alameda Health System took ownership of San Leandro Hospital from Sutter Health in 2013, after Sutter had announced plans to close it, and kept its emergency room open. HCAI lists the hospital at 13855 East 14th Street with 91 licensed beds and basic emergency service. Sutter's nearest hospital today is Eden Medical Center in Castro Valley.

? Where should a medical practice look for space in San Leandro?

San Leandro's medical activity is split among three hospital campuses. Kaiser's Merced Street campus combines its hospital with a 275,000-square-foot medical office building for its own physicians. San Leandro Hospital anchors the East 14th Street corridor, and Alameda Health System's Fairmont campus sits on Foothill Boulevard. Independent practices that refer to or admit at San Leandro Hospital, or that serve patients in southern San Leandro, may want to start their search on East 14th Street.

? Should I lease space near a hospital?

Hospital proximity offers advantages including referral relationships, shared patient populations, and perceived prestige. However, hospital-adjacent properties often command premium rents. Consider whether your specialty benefits from hospital proximity (surgeons, specialists) or whether a community location might better serve your patient base (primary care, pediatrics, dentistry).

? What parking ratio do medical offices need?

Medical offices typically require higher parking ratios than general office space due to patient turnover throughout the day. A common standard is 5-6 spaces per 1,000 square feet, compared to 3-4 for general office. High-volume practices like urgent care or imaging centers may need even more. Verify the property's parking allocation before signing a lease.

? What is a second-generation medical space?

Second-generation (2nd gen) medical space is a suite previously occupied by a medical tenant that retains clinical infrastructure like plumbing, electrical, and possibly exam room layouts. Leasing 2nd gen space can significantly reduce build-out costs and timelines compared to shell condition, though modifications may still be needed to suit your specific practice requirements.
