Intermountain Health held a groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2026, for the new North Campus Medical Office Building in Ogden. The 80,000-square-foot facility is intended to expand patient access and create space for expanded services at the McKay-Dee Hospital main campus.
The new specialty and primary care facility is located on the Intermountain Health campus just to the north of McKay-Dee Hospital. According to McKay-Dee Hospital President Judy Williamson, the project has been in the planning stages for approximately five years.
Seven clinics are expected to relocate from the McKay-Dee Hospital main campus to the new facility. Williamson stated that the move is part of a strategy to improve access by providing primary care and specialty clinics in a location that is easier for patients to enter and exit.
Devin Reid, vice president of Intermountain Medical Group Canyons North Market, noted during the ceremony that the site is near where leaders broke ground nearly 60 years ago for a hospital that shaped healthcare in northern Utah.
Reid stated that the new building will allow McKay-Dee Hospital to expand existing specialties such as cardiology, oncology, and women’s health, including OB-GYN and minimally invasive GYN. The expansion will also include neurosurgery and growth in sub-specialized areas like colorectal and general surgery.
The new facility is expected to allow McKay-Dee Hospital to offer urology and neurology services for the first time, according to Reid. Previously, patients were required to travel as far as Salt Lake City to receive those specific services.
By moving certain providers to the North Campus, the main hospital campus will have more space available for surgical specialties that require proximity to operating rooms and inpatient settings.
The North Campus Medical Office Building is anticipated to be completed in the spring of 2028.
