UC Davis Health opened its new Folsom Medical Care Clinic in September, marking a major milestone in expanding access to high-quality care for the fast-growing Folsom, El Dorado Hills and foothills region.
The clinic is located at 14264 Innovation Dr. — near Hwy 50 and E. Bidwell. The three-story, 114,000-square-foot building is the first on the new Folsom Center for Health campus. It consolidates three existing UC Davis Health facilities in Folsom and adds additional services.
“This is a big day for Folsom. This new UC Davis facility is more than just a beautiful building — it’s a major investment in the health and well-being of our residents. UC Davis Health is bringing top-tier care right to our doorstep while supporting local jobs and partnerships.”—Folsom Mayor Sarah Aquino
The $182 million facility will offer pediatric and family medicine care as well as cardiology, neurology, hematology and oncology, sports medicine and much more. In addition to primary and specialty care, it will also offer cancer treatments in a state-of-the-art infusion center, and expanded radiology options, including MRI, CT and bone density scans.
“This will become a one-stop shop for many patients as they navigate between their primary care, specialty care, imaging and labs, and it will allow for better collaboration amongst providers.”—Debbie Aizenberg, UC Davis Health chief medical officer for ambulatory care
The clinic’s design reflects a strong connection to nature and healing. Each area of the light-filled building is themed around different native plants, such as sunflowers, milkweed, lupine and poppies. Artwork fills the space, including photographs by the clinic director.
Patients and staff can take a break or share a meal at the outdoor tables and children can enjoy a new playground outside the facility. Infusion center patients can look out onto a healing garden reflecting the natural biome of the area while receiving treatment in the comfortable space.
“With this investment in Folsom, we are saying to our patients and families, ‘We want to be where you need us, when you need us, and how you need us.’ ”—Bruce Hall, UC Davis Health chief clinical officer
Additional facilities are planned on the Folsom Center for Health campus as the health system adapts to the needs of this vibrant region.
UC Davis Health will also continue to provide some services at its 271 Turn Pike Dr. location in Folsom. These include gastroenterology, dermatology and pulmonology.
