Ohio Gastroenterology Group purchased a medical office building (MOB) near its north Columbus, Ohio headquarters in an effort to support growth. The purchase price for the property was $1.5 million.

According to data captured in the LevinPro HC database, this represents the 83rd MOB transaction of 2023. This is a slight increase from last year, when there were 76 MOB deals announced between January 1, 2022, and May 15, 2022.

The one-story, 10,576-square-foot MOB sits on less than 1 acre and was built in 1966, according to Franklin County property records. The building was remodeled in 2012. The current tenant is OhioHealth Physician Group Gynecology, which operates a comprehensive women’s healthcare center.

Ohio Gastroenterology will occupy the building when the current tenant’s lease expires in two-and-a-half years. The company also will keep its current headquarters building.

Started in 1996, Ohio Gastroenterology Group is central Ohio’s leading provider of advanced GI procedures, including colonoscopy and upper endoscopy.
