UCI Medical Affiliates Ready to Show Off New Headquarters

COLUMBIA, SC - October 30, 2009 - UCI Medical Affiliates of South Carolina Inc. has moved its corporate headquarters to a new environmentally-friendly office in Columbia's downtown Robert Mills historic district.

UCI Medical Affiliates of South Carolina Inc. provides management and administrative services for a network of medical centers, most operating as Doctors Care facilities.

"The new headquarters brings approximately one hundred UCI employees from several sites to the single downtown location. As a premiere South Carolina public company, we wanted to be in the capital city and are delighted our employees are now part of the fabric of the city," said Dr. Michael Stout, President and CEO of UCI Medical Affiliates.

The building, at 1818 Henderson Street, was completely renovated with an eye toward conservation and sustainability. The renovation was designed by Columbia architecture firm Watson Tate Savory, which occupies the first LEED-certified building in Columbia's City Center.

The headquarters has been registered with the U.S. Green Building Council, and UCI leadership plans to seek certification through the national Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). Such certification attests that a building meets materials and performance standards, as well as sustainability goals, for eco-friendly building practices.
