Dr. Lisa Martin Eyecare

 

Owner: Dr. Lisa Martin
Location: 1610 Rock Springs Road, Smyrna, Tennessee
Project Delivery: Design-Build
Project Scope: Pre-construction services and new construction of a stand-alone eyecare facility

At about the same time Dr. Lisa Martin’s lease was about to expire, she was ready to expand her eyecare practice. So, she turned to Dow Smith Company. We were able to assist her in choosing a suitable lot, performing due diligence and securing the necessary rezoning to match her practice’s use.

The Martin Eyecare project includes new exam rooms, a high-end waiting room and reception area, functional administrative space, a contact lens room, a large optical dispensary and space for another physician. The new facility allowed Dr. Martin to double the size of her practice.

“Everybody—almost without exception—told me to go with Dow Smith. His great reputation truly does precede him. When you say build, people just say Dow Smith.””
— Dr. Lisa Martin, Owner, Martin Eyecare

Building a Dental Office Is Not Your Average Construction Project

If you're thinking about building or renovating a dental office, you've probably already realized this isn't your typical construction project. Creating an amazing dental space involves so much more than just putting up walls and installing some fancy chairs. It's about crafting an environment where patients feel at ease (even when they're nervous about that root canal!) and where your team can work efficiently to provide top-notch care.

Our Purpose In Action At Smyrna Middle School

At Dow Smith Company, our purpose is to serve. That spirit of service shows up in the way we take care of each other, the exceptional and unique experiences we provide clients, and in our dedication to the community in which we live and work. We recently completed a bathroom restoration project at Smyrna Middle School (SMS). This project comes after we built an outdoor theater for Smyrna Elementary School in 2023 and a new field house for Smyrna High School in 2024.
