Sterling Expands to Northern Idaho with Post Falls Urgent Care

February 16, 2023

IDAHO FALLS – JANUARY, 2023 – Sterling Urgent Care will opened its eighth Idaho location on February 13, 2023, at Hwy 900 ID-41 in Post Falls, bringing their affordable, high-quality non-emergency care and managed occupational health services to northern Idaho.

The location joins Sterling’s Lewiston urgent care clinic, opened in October 2022, and their new clinic in Rexburg, opened in January 2023, in an expansion bringing the urgent care services closer to every Idaho resident. Now in its 10th year in business, Sterling Urgent Care began with a single location in Idaho Falls, founded by business owners who wanted to fill the gap between high-deductible employer-provided health insurance and the trips to the emergency room that many workers relied upon for care.

“Our focus has always been on affordable care for individuals and families,” said Sterling Urgent Care Chief Executive Officer Scott Brown. “As we reach more communities in Idaho, our value grows because people know they can count on Sterling to be there wherever they go.”

A significant piece of Sterling Urgent Care’s value comes from the Sterling Membership, available as a monthly subscription for families and individuals. Sterling Members receive free, unlimited office visits, $15 on-site X-Rays, and Labs and prescriptions for as little as $10. Every Sterling Urgent Care location provides non-emergency family care, drug and alcohol screenings, employment, school and DOT physicals, and managed occupational health services for employers.

“When we only had one location in Idaho Falls, the value of Sterling Membership was limited,” Brown said. “Now that we have urgent care clinics throughout Idaho, we can provide services that match the footprints of Idaho’s largest employers, and travel with our patients as they explore the state.”

Sterling Telehealth is available now in Post Falls, allowing residents to book a virtual appointment and receive prescriptions at a nearby pharmacy. Telehealth appointments can be scheduled by calling  1-208-542-9111.

For in-person care, the Post Falls clinic will be open Monday through Saturday from 8 AM to 8 PM. All major insurance plans are accepted for in-person care and Sterling Telehealth, including Medicare and Medicaid. Appointments are not required, but can be scheduled online.
