High Valley Dermatology – Alpine Satellite Pavilion: Elite Multi-State Medical & Surgical Skin Care for the Star Valley Region

To provide dedicated, life-saving skin cancer interventions and clinical care to the mountain communities of western Wyoming, High Valley Dermatology operates a premier, highly coordinated medical satellite pavilion in Alpine, Wyoming.

Operating in direct partnership with Star Valley Health, this multi-state extension ensures that patients living along the Snake River and the Idaho-Wyoming border have seamless local access to elite, board-certified dermatological care. The practice completely cuts out the necessity of driving over the high-elevation Teton or Snake River mountain passes into Idaho for routine diagnostic checks or complex oncology follow-ups. Anchored by the region’s top board-certified dermatologists and fellowship-trained Mohs micrographic surgeons—including Dr. Lindsay D. Sewell, M.D. and Dr. Brandon L. Miner, D.O.—the local pavilion provides an essential medical shield focused on aggressive skin cancer prevention, early clinical diagnostics, and the long-term preservation of your skin’s health.

Comprehensive Local Medical Specialties & Surgical Triage

The Alpine clinic is fully equipped to act as a front-line defense against the intense high-altitude UV radiation common to the Rocky Mountain region:

• Preventative High-Altitude Skin Cancer Screenings: Offering spot-by-spot, meticulous full-body skin checkups and mole mapping designed specifically to catch pre-cancerous actinic keratoses, basal cell carcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas, and deep melanomas early. The staff handles initial biopsies on-site, providing rapid diagnostic processing.
• Comprehensive Medical Dermatology: Expert clinical diagnosis, diagnostic testing, and therapeutic management for chronic and acute skin, hair, and nail disorders across all age groups. The clinical team provides customized treatment paths for pediatric, adult, and geriatric patients struggling with active acne vulgaris, severe eczema (atopic dermatitis), stubborn plaque psoriasis, and rosacea.
• Freestanding Surgical Excision: Providing local, safe, in-office surgical removals for benign and malignant growths, including lipomas, cysts, skin tags, and localized skin cancers.
• Direct Fellowship-Trained Mohs Surgery Coordination: For high-risk or aggressive skin malignancies located on visually sensitive areas like the face, scalp, neck, or ears, the Alpine staff coordinates your care directly. Following an on-site biopsy, they map out a rapid, priority transfer to their main state-of-the-art campus, where Dr. Sewell and Dr. Miner execute gold-standard Mohs Micrographic Surgery and immediate plastic reconstructive closures.

Wintergreen Drive Transit & Alpine Neighborhood Logistics

High Valley Dermatology provides care twice a month on Fridays at the SV Health Specialty Clinic Alpine, located at 37 Wintergreen Drive in Alpine, Wyoming. The freestanding, beautifully designed log-and-stone professional facility features a massive, free, drive-up private parking area directly in front of the clinic doors:

• The Star Valley Health Specialized Node: Situated right off the main thoroughfares in a highly accessible commercial and medical sector of Alpine, immediately adjacent to local community centers. This central placement allows regional families and local professionals to easily pair an essential clinical skin check with their weekly neighborhood routine.
• Discrete Ground-Floor Access: The single-story, mountain-style layout means post-operative or senior patients can comfortably transition from their vehicles straight into private, warm clinical exam rooms. This entirely eliminates the need to navigate heavy stairs, crowded elevator banks, or busy multi-tenant hallways.
• Effortless Multi-County Commuter Connectivity: Strategically positioned just seconds from the intersection of US-89 and US-26 (right where the Snake River meets the Palisades Reservoir), the clinic provides an incredibly direct and stress-free commute. It entirely bypasses major city traffic bottlenecks, providing an efficient path for local residents in Alpine, Afton, Thayne, Star Valley Ranch, and Freedom, as well as an easy commute for patients driving down the canyon from Jackson Hole or coming across the state line from Irwin and Swan Valley, Idaho.
