Ohio-based health firm buys in The Woodlands and Kingwood

THE WOODLANDS, KINGWOOD – Woodside Health has added two medical office buildings in the suburban areas of Houston to its portfolio.

The Alore Center, originally built as a retail property at 26710 I-45 North, is fully occupied by two tenants. First Surgical Partners uses the bulk of the 29,924-sf center and operates a surgery center called First Surgical Woodlands.

The Rockmead Professional Center, a 28,038-sf property at 605 and 611 Rockmead Dr. in Kingwood, is leased to six tenants with Texas Children’s Hospital as the largest. One suite is available for lease.

"The next year or two might be a little slower with the oil and gas industry, but we’re believers," said Ben Sheridan, a co-founder of Woodside Health.

The health care sector is more resistant to downturns than other types of real estate, Sheridan said.
