Community leaders and caregivers from Intermountain Health McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden broke ground on Tuesday for a new 80,000-square-foot medical building. According to an October 13 statement, the project aims to increase access to specialty and primary care for patients in Weber County.
The new facility is designed to bring multiple specialty clinics together in a modern setting while creating additional space on the main hospital campus. Judy Williamson, president of Intermountain Health McKay-Dee Hospital, stated that the project represents an investment in the health of the growing community by making it easier for families to receive care close to home.
The project will relocate several clinics currently located in the existing medical office building into the new North Campus facility. The upgraded space will include primary care offices and expanded space for specialty clinics, including pediatrics, diabetes, endocrinology, and sleep medicine.
The new building is a continuation of the hospital's North Campus expansion. The Endoscopy Center and Porter Family Medicine Clinic recently opened, while the Surgery Center & Sports Medicine clinic has been serving patients for years.
