Continuing Our Legacy of Excellence in Health Care
From our founding in 1902 to 2022, when we were recognized as one of the top 15 health systems in the nation for the ninth consecutive year, St. Luke’s has always been a leader in quality care and a dedicated community partner.
As Idaho’s only locally based, not-for-profit, community owned and led health system, we are committed to providing all patients with the highest quality health care, regardless of their ability to pay.
