Santa Clara County opened Valley Health Center San José-Campbell on Monday, September 28, at 1410 South Bascom Avenue, on the San Jose–Campbell line next to the VTA Bascom light-rail stop. The 10-story, 230,000-square-foot outpatient building holds more than 200 exam rooms. It is the largest clinic in the county system. Services include adult medicine, family medicine, pediatric primary and specialty care, adult and pediatric urgent care, OB-GYN and maternal-fetal medicine, dental, behavioral health, pharmacy, lab, and imaging. Two older San Jose clinics fold into this one roof.
The county bought the converted commercial site from HSRE-PMB San Jose in January for $340 million, financed with a 30-year revenue bond. Officials said owning instead of leasing will save about $112 million over three decades. Construction ran four years. A 600-space garage sits on the lot. More than 11,000 households are within walking distance; about 90,000 people live a 10-minute drive away. Apartments bookend the block. The Urban Village map already wanted density here and putting the biggest public clinic on that corner is the most practical version of that map.
Weekday clinic hours run 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Adult and pediatric urgent care stay open until 9:30 p.m. on weekdays and until 5 p.m. on weekends. County clinics already see 1.3 million visits a year. This building is the bet that wait times drop when primary care, dental, and after-hours urgent care share an elevator and a light-rail platform.
