The new clinic is structured in conformity with the historic layout. The specialist surgical departments are located mainly to the south of the central boulevard, while the conservative departments and the gynaecological and paediatric clinics are positioned to its north.
The southern and northern belts of buildings are linked via a main transverse route in the basement to the adjacent x ray diagnosis centre. This underground access system connects all the clinic buildings, eliminating the need for outdoor movements; the peripheral central amenities, such as the kitchens, laundry centre and refuse collecting centre are also reached via this system.
