Bigfork Valley Laboratory assumed the management of the lab at Scenic Rivers Health Services Northome medical  clinic on December 1.

Vanessa Troy will be the onsite Bigfork Valley outreach lab employee, supporting SRHS providers Jill Cease, CNP and Alex Dammer, DNP.  She will complete onsite lab testing and draw samples for analysis through Bigfork Valley Hospital which are picked up by daily courier. All lab results are delivered electronically directly to the patient’s provider.

“We are very pleased to be able to provide this outreach service to Scenic Rivers Health Services and the Northome community,” said Vance Koppelmann, Bigfork Valley lab manager.  “Our hospital lab has excellent up-to-date equipment to offer a wide range of diagnostic services that can be done locally.”
