About Us

Family Health Services began in 1982 with clinics in Burley and Twin Falls (still the largest), followed by Buhl and Jerome. In 2004, two new access points were added in Rupert and Fairfield.

Family Health Services is a non-profit corporation. A majority of the policy-making board of directors are Family Health Services patients. Board members are volunteer representatives of the local communities served by Family Health Services.

Family Health Services also boasts a 35 ft. mobile medical unit known as the Idaho Children’s Health Project. This modern mobile unit visits rural communities and provides medical and dental hygiene services to children and their families who might not otherwise have access to care due to geographical and transportation barriers.

In 2004, FHS opened a new Behavioral Health Program office and hired two psychiatrists and two Licensed Clinical Social Workers. Several new physicians have been added during the last few years and overall staff numbers have increased from 52 to 90 employees in just the last year.

Each Family Health Services clinic is designed to offer care in an efficient, caring, supportive and culturally sensitive environment. All are modern facilities with up-to-date medical equipment.
