Saddle Hills County Health Clinic to Open in the New Year
Saddle Hills County is pleased to announce that the Saddle Hills County Health Clinic will reopen to County residents on January 5, 2026.
The Clinic will operate Monday to Thursday, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. County residents can begin booking appointments as of January 5, 2026.
The Health Clinic was temporarily closed on October 1, 2025, when the former Nurse Practitioner began maternity leave. During this time, Saddle Hills County focused on recruiting and onboarding a replacement to ensure continuity of care and a smooth return to service.
Nurse Practitioner Courtney Schoorlemmer (Sideroff) joined the Health Clinic team on November 26, 2025, stepping in to ensure residents continue to have access to local, community-based primary healthcare.
The Saddle Hills County Health Clinic first opened on June 17, 2024, marking an important milestone in strengthening access to healthcare closer to home. The January reopening reflects the County’s commitment to accessible, reliable healthcare services for residents.
