Key Points

• UHealth debuts 363,000 SF outpatient center in North Miami’s SoLé Mia — its largest facility to date.

The University of Miami Health System just dropped a game-changer in North Miami: a 363,000-square-foot, seven-story outpatient hub inside the master-planned SoLé Mia community. This is more than an expansion — it’s a strategic power move blending academic medicine, advanced tech, and premium design.

Big Bet on North Miami: Why SoLé Mia?

UHealth is building beyond its Coral Gables and Doral footprint — and North Miami is the latest target.

• Location: Situated in the 184-acre SoLé Mia development by Turnberry and LeFrak, the center places high-end healthcare inside a fast-growing, mixed-use neighborhood.

• Scale: At 363,000 SF, it’s UHealth’s largest ambulatory site, combining multiple high-acuity specialties under one roof.

• Strategic Reach: Aims to pull patients from North Miami, Aventura, Miami Shores, and even parts of Broward County.

What’s Inside: Specialty Powerhouse

UHealth SoLé Mia isn’t just big — it’s stacked with nationally ranked specialty care.

• Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center — Only NCI-designated cancer center in South Florida.

• Bascom Palmer Eye Institute — Ranked #1 in the U.S. for 24 straight years.

• Desai Sethi Urology Institute — Cutting-edge, high-volume urology services.

• New HSS Partnership — Brings in Hospital for Special Surgery, the #1 orthopedic hospital in the nation, to handle musculoskeletal cases locally.

Other services include cardiology, neurology, gastroenterology, dermatology, and more.

AI-Enhanced Care + Healing-Centered Design

SoLé Mia isn’t just medically advanced — it’s built to feel different.

• AI-Driven Tech: Self-check-in, ambient voice dictation, automated coding — all designed to minimize admin and maximize patient care time.

• Healing Architecture: Natural light, art, and hospitality-inspired interiors aim to reduce stress and improve outcomes.

• Workflow Efficiency: Streamlined for outpatient flow while preserving academic rigor.

UHealth leadership calls it a model for how care should feel — high-touch, not high-friction.

Real Estate Impact: Boost to SoLé Mia Development

The LeFrak/Turnberry SoLé Mia project has been gaining momentum, and this medical anchor supercharges it.

• Mixed-Use Synergy: Adds value to nearby residential, retail, and hospitality uses within the 184-acre master plan.

• Patient Traffic: Thousands of visits per week will drive local foot traffic and support nearby businesses.

• Higher Absorption: Health access boosts livability — expect demand to rise for the community’s luxury rentals and condos.

UHealth’s presence also signals to institutional investors that SoLé Mia is becoming a destination, not just another development.
