Kaiser Permanente Santa Clara Medical Center, a 343-bed hospital at 700 Lawrence Expressway, is the city's general acute-care hospital and anchors its main medical cluster. Kaiser's campus extends to its Santa Clara Medical Offices at 710 Lawrence Expressway and to buildings on Homestead Road, including a cancer treatment center at 3800 Homestead and a behavioral health center at 3840 Homestead.

Frequently Asked Questions

View All FAQs

? Which hospital serves Santa Clara?

Kaiser Permanente Santa Clara Medical Center at 700 Lawrence Expressway is a 343-bed general acute-care hospital with an emergency department, according to the state's HCAI facility profile. Kaiser's adjacent Santa Clara Medical Offices are at 710 Lawrence Expressway, and Kaiser runs additional buildings on Homestead Road, including a cancer treatment center and a behavioral health center. Sutter Health has announced a second hospital for the city, Sutter Medical Center, Santa Clara, on Mission College Boulevard, projected to open in late 2031.

? What is Sutter Health building in Santa Clara?

Sutter Health is developing two outpatient campuses on Mission College Boulevard with the Palo Alto Medical Foundation. The 300,000-square-foot East campus opened its first building, the East Santa Clara Care Center at 2441 Mission College Blvd., on October 20, 2025, and is opening in phases. The roughly 700,000-square-foot West campus is set to begin opening in 2027. In November 2025 Sutter announced an eight-story, 850,000-square-foot hospital at 2831 and 2841 Mission College Blvd., projected to open in late 2031.

? Where should a medical practice look for space in Santa Clara?

Santa Clara has two main medical clusters. The established one surrounds Kaiser Permanente's hospital at 700 Lawrence Expressway and its medical offices and specialty buildings on Lawrence Expressway and Homestead Road. The newer one is on Mission College Boulevard in north Santa Clara, where Sutter Health opened the East Santa Clara Care Center in October 2025, plans a West campus opening from 2027, and has announced a hospital projected for late 2031. The better fit depends on which system your patients and referrals use.

? 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 "medical corridor" or "healthcare district"?

Medical corridors or healthcare districts are geographic areas with high concentrations of healthcare facilities, often anchored by hospitals. Locating within these areas can provide benefits including patient convenience, referral network proximity, shared parking arrangements, and established wayfinding. The Bay Area has several prominent medical corridors in cities like Palo Alto, San Jose, and San Francisco.
