Intermountain Health is expanding access to specialized care near home for patients in Utah County and Southwest Salt Lake County through the opening of the new Saratoga Springs Specialty Clinic and Cancer Center, according to an October 9 statement.
The new 48,000-square-foot facility was built on an existing campus that already includes emergency services and a surgery center.
The clinic is scheduled to open on Monday, Oct. 12, and will serve residents in Saratoga Springs, Eagle Mountain, Lehi, and other nearby communities. Services at the clinic will include cardiology, gastroenterology, orthopedics and sports medicine, women’s health, and pediatrics.
The cancer center will provide medical oncology, radiation oncology, infusion therapy, survivorship support, and advanced radiation treatment.
Jason Wilson, president of Intermountain Health American Fork Hospital, stated that the expansion helps ensure people in one of Utah’s fastest-growing areas have necessary medical care. He noted the project represents trusted care and a healthier future for families across the growing community.
Lyndsey Russell, market vice president of Medical Group operations for Intermountain Health, said bringing these services together makes it easier for providers to collaborate and for patients to receive care in one place.
The expansion creates a connected campus designed to reduce barriers to care, such as travel times. Tawnya Bowles, MD, senior medical director for oncology at Intermountain, said the center will help patients stay connected to family, work, and daily life while receiving high-quality care.
The new facility is being integrated into the existing Saratoga Springs campus to allow patients to receive more of their care in one convenient location.
