Kleiman | Evangelista Eye Center is Arlington’s premier ophthalmology practice with three locations serving Dallas and the greater DFW area with over 17,000 patient visits in 2015. The Arlington location is Kleiman | Evangelista Eye Center’s primary location and includes an integrated accredited ambulatory surgery center that is comprised of four surgical suites, eighteen exam rooms, and six EPIC rooms.

In addition to the sale of Kleiman | Evangelista Eye Center, BGLREP’s National Healthcare Real Estate team also recently served as the exclusive advisors to five additional separate healthcare real estate sale transactions in Texas, including the Texas Spine & Joint Hospital, the premier short-term acute care hospital in East Texas, which is an approximate 170,000 square foot physician-owned surgical hospital in Tyler, Texas, as well as a 107,000 square foot outpatient surgery center and medical office building located in West Texas.
