English translation:health centre

Explanation:
Avoids the necessity of specifying whether there is one or more doctors. It's hard to say without more context whether it could even be the kind of place staffed just by nurses.

Un pôle est un centre qui regroupe des professionnels d'un même secteur d'activité.

Peut-être "doctor's center" s'il n'y a qu'un médecin.

"medical department"

Explanation:
Restructuré en 2005, le service des urgences monte en charge depuis cinq ans. De 7 000 patients accueillis en 2005, il est passé aujourd'hui à 13 000. Une montée en puissance que le chef de service par ailleurs chef du pôle Médecin A - urgences, le docteur Abdallah Aitoual, explique :

"Parallèlement au projet du nouvel hôpital, un travail est mené sur la réorganisation des services en 9 pôles :
- Pôle imagerie
- Pôle laboratoire
- Pôle pharmacie et stérilisation centrale
- Pôle mère et enfant
- Pôle chirurgie
- Pôle médecine interventionnelle à plateaux techniques
- Pôle médecin à consultations externes fortes
- Pôle métiers de l’urgence
- Pôle établissement pour personnes âgées"

The lack of an "e" on the end of "médecin" does imply that it means doctor, rather than medical.

Given the earlier absence of context, I had guessed that this was either in a hospital or the medical (products) department of a company. Now that the context of a bank has been given, medical centre seems more appropriate.

Medical centre

Explanation:
Pole is increasingly used in this part of France, at least, to imply a re-groupment of various services which are interconnected. There are "Pôle Industrielle" or if you are out of work the "Pôle Emploi". The latter being a combination of the job centre and the department Assedic who deal with your rights to any money or financial assistance.
