Intermountain Health Launches a Game-Changing Clinic!

SARATOGA SPRINGS — On a momentous Friday, Intermountain Health broke ground on an ambitious project: a new multi-specialty clinic paired with a specialized cancer center designed to serve the ever-growing community of northern Utah County.

What to Expect from the New Facility!

The Intermountain Saratoga Springs Multi-Specialty Clinic and Cancer Center promises a comprehensive array of services, including OB/GYN care, gastroenterology, audiology, urology, cardiology, and pediatrics, among others. Patients can look forward to advanced cancer care that goes beyond treatments like chemotherapy to include essential support services.

This isn’t just about treatment; the cancer center will focus on the whole person's journey. Survivorship services will feature oncology social workers and nurse navigators to help patients navigate the often-overwhelming healthcare landscape.

Significant Relief for Patients!

The new center will significantly lighten the load for cancer patients who currently have to travel 20 to 50 miles to access care in American Fork and Provo. As Desiree Dougherty, assistant director for Intermountain Health, emphasized, 'Cancer care should be close to home.' The emotional and physical toll of traveling far for treatment can be daunting, and this new facility aims to keep families united during tough times.

A Personal Story of Hope!

Laurie and Scott Stone know this burden all too well. After Laurie was diagnosed with uterine cancer in 2022, she underwent rigorous testing and treatment, making long drives for radiation therapy. Then, just two years later, Scott too faced a cancer diagnosis. While they are still navigating their health journey, the groundbreaking of this nearby clinic symbolizes hope and progress.

A Community on the Rise!

Saratoga Springs, currently home to over 59,000 residents and one of Utah’s fastest-growing areas, cries out for these essential services. With nearby Eagle Mountain also experiencing a population boom projected to reach 80,000 by 2029, this new clinic is a timely addition to the community.

Cutting-Edge Care Right at Your Doorstep!

Brandon Barney, the medical director for radiation oncology services, declared the mission clear: 'Our vision is to offer local, personal, and healing cancer care.' Patients will have access to state-of-the-art technology commonly found only in major medical centers, ensuring no cancer type goes untreated.

Location and Future Aspirations!

The clinic will occupy 392 W. Medical Drive, strategically placed between the Intermountain Saratoga Springs Emergency Department and Surgery Center. Set to open in fall 2026, this facility is geared to revolutionize how residents experience healthcare.
