Don`t think medical office,, those would be metal !! You can not sterilize/clean wood !! It reminds me of the cabinets used with the Gramaphone/Victor victrola with the large horn !! Some cabinets like this were also known as Radio Cabinets.!! Before television the radio took a special place in the home !! There were very few pieces that were designated for those uses by the mfr. !! Usually they were just ocassional pieces that were used by the owner for the radio or tabletop victrola !! Sometimes if used for those,,you can see discoloration of the wood around the outside edge,, slightly darker in the center !! May have to look across the top at an angle to see the difference in color !!
