High Valley Dermatology – Rigby: Dedicated Localized Medical & Surgical Skin Pavilion

To better serve families and communities across the Upper Snake River Valley, High Valley Dermatology operates a dedicated, full-service neighborhood satellite pavilion in Rigby, Idaho.

Backed by the exact same board-certified medical leadership and academic tissue-safety protocols as their main regional campus in Idaho Falls, the Rigby facility ensures that Jefferson County residents have direct local access to elite medical skin care. The practice completely cuts out the necessity of traveling south down the highway for essential clinical diagnostics. Anchored by the group’s highly praised board-certified dermatologists—including Dr. Lindsay D. Sewell, M.D., Dr. Brandon L. Miner, D.O., and Dr. Lena E. Gowring, M.D.—alongside their trusted team of specialized dermatology physician assistants, this local clinic delivers evidence-based care focused squarely on complex skin pathologies, ongoing cancer prevention, and long-term epidermal health.

High Valley Rigby’s Core Clinical Offerings

The Rigby location acts as a comprehensive localized clinical shield, focusing primarily on medical and preventative dermatological interventions:

• Preventative Full-Body Skin Screenings: Spot-by-spot, meticulous full-body mole mapping designed to catch dangerous melanomas and pre-cancerous actinic keratoses early. The staff handles initial tissue biopsies on-site, providing rapid diagnostic processing and direct surgical coordination if any cutaneous malignancies are detected.
• Comprehensive Medical Dermatology: Expert clinical evaluation, diagnostic pathing, and therapeutic management for acute and chronic skin, hair, and nail disorders. The clinical team provides individualized care for pediatric, adult, and geriatric patients struggling with stubborn plaque psoriasis, severe eczema (atopic dermatitis), rosacea, active acne vulgaris, cyst management, and viral warts.
• Surgical Tissue Excision & Triage: Providing local, safe in-office surgical removals for benign and malignant growths, including lipomas, cysts, skin tags, and basal or squamous cell carcinomas.
• Direct Fellowship-Trained Mohs Coordination: For high-risk skin cancers on visually sensitive areas like the face, scalp, or neck, the Rigby staff handles all initial evaluations and diagnostic preparation directly. They map out your rapid, seamless transfer to their main campus, where Dr. Sewell and Dr. Miner execute the gold-standard Mohs Micrographic Surgery and immediate plastic reconstructive closures.

Rigby Lake Drive Transit & Neighborhood Logistics

Located at 703 Rigby Lake Drive, High Valley Dermatology occupies a beautifully modern, completely wheelchair-accessible professional medical office. The freestanding building features a large, free, drive-up private parking area directly in front of the clinic doors:

• The Rigby Lake Gateway: Positioned in a rapidly growing commercial area right near the entrance to the popular Rigby Lake recreation zone. This highly visible location allows local families to easily pair a quick routine skin screening or medical checkup with their weekly community routine.
• Private Ground-Floor Access: The single-story layout means post-operative or senior patients can comfortably transition from their cars straight into private treatment rooms. This eliminates the need to navigate the stairs, crowded elevator banks, or busy common lobbies of large, multi-story medical high-rises.
• Effortless Upper Valley Highway Connectivity: Strategically situated just off US-20 (Rigby Lake Dr / Exit 322), the clinic provides an incredibly direct and stress-free commute. It entirely bypasses the inner-city traffic bottlenecks of Idaho Falls, offering an efficient, direct path for patients driving from neighboring rural enclaves such as Rexburg, Menan, Ririe, Roberts, Lewisville, and Lorenzo.
