BOISE, Idaho — Construction started this week for a new Saint Alphonsus medical office in Caldwell.
Construction of the 4-story, 54,800 square-foot building kicked off on Monday, Nov. 27. Per a news release from St. Alphonsus, Caldwell is experiencing significant growth and officials with the medical clinic believe the community will benefit from the expanded healthcare services closer to home.
The Medical Health Plaza plans to offer primary care, urgent care and specialty services including cardiology, general surgery, ear nose and throat, orthopedic, sports medicine, podiatry and occupational medicine. The new clinic will also provide lab and imaging services, including X-Ray, mammography and ultrasound.
"At Saint Alphonsus, we are committed to ensuring the communities we serve have access to exceptional high-quality health care when, where, and how they need it," Odette Bolano, President and CEO of West Region for Trinity Health said. "Our commitment is to develop an innovative medical facility with a sustainable design that enables the residents of Canyon County and the surrounding region to experience exceptional and accessible primary and specialty care close to home."
The new facility will be erected on an 18-acre site and is expected to feature 54,800 square-feet of usable clinic space, the release said. Six acres will be a developed site with 320 parking stalls. The goal for the large lot is to "ensure the capacity to expand as the growth of the community dictates."
The new office will be located at 712 Aviation Way at the intersection of Aviation Way and Franklin Road.
Construction is estimated to take 20 months, which a projected completion date anticipated for September 2025.
