Idaho hospital opens remodeled orthopedic specialty clinic — 3 details

Practice Management

Franklin County Medical Center in Preston, Idaho, has completed the remodeling of its orthopedics-focused specialty clinic, reports The Preston Citizen.

Three details:

1. The hospital added two exam rooms and one procedure room, bringing the total to four ORs and two procedure rooms.

2. Kerry Jepsen, MD, an orthopedic surgeon with Bear Lake Orthopedic in Montpelier, Idaho, Gregory Hicken, MD, an orthopodiatrist of Alpine Orthopaedics in Logan, Utah, and Spencer Heninger, MD, also of Alpine Orthopaedics will be among the physicians practicing at FCMC.

3. The overall expansion cost was $48,000, covered primarily by Health Care Foundation Funds.

"We love it," said Melissa Aaronholt, manager of the clinic, told The Preston Citizen. "We used to only be able to have one physician at a time. Now we can have up to three. If it weren't for this [remodel] we would have stalled out."
