Allina Health has recently presented a proposal to the city of Isanti to build a new clinic in the city.
Pending approval from the city of Isanti and capital funding approval, construction will begin in summer 2016 with an estimated opening date in early 2017.
“We want to help make it possible for every resident of Isanti County and the surrounding communities to receive comprehensive health care in a comfortable, convenient setting, close to home,” said Gary Shaw, president of Cambridge Medical Center, part of Allina Health. “Our growing community will benefit from the medical expertise provided at this clinic, which will provide family practice, pregnancy care, specialty care and mental health appointments. Courage Kenny Sports & Physical Therapy will offer physical rehabilitation care at the new clinic, and integrative medicine consults, acupuncture, nutrition consults, health coaching and healthy lifestyle programs will be available from the Penny George™ Institute for Health and Healing at the new clinic.”
The proposal submitted to the city calls for the clinic to be built at the southwest corner of Highway 65 and County Road 5.
Architects and planners for the new clinic have been talking to patients about the design and construction that will best support a healing environment for patients, community members and guests, as well as a work environment that is safe, healthy and effective for providers and staff members.
