BLACKFOOT — Bingham Memorial Hospital has recently added a number of new doctors to its staff. On Wednesday, during the Greater Blackfoot Chamber of Commerce luncheon, BMH representative Scott Reese introduced two of them.
"We've had an incredibly busy year," Reese said. "Our growth is because of you."
Dr. Tushar Shah, a hospitalist, and Dr. Rebecca Gill, a surgeon who specializes in breast cancer and melanomas, explained their passions.
Dr. Shah noted that the hospitalist program is new at Bingham.
"I work in the hospital 24/7 when I'm on," he said. "I don't have an outside clinic."
BLACKFOOT — The Blackfoot Community Center has received two grants to allow children of the most financially challenged families to attend its early childhood education program.
The first is a grant for $2,500 from the Kissler Family Foundation Philanthropic Gift Fund in the Idaho Community Foundation. The second is a grant for $1,000 from the Jane Sandy Fund and the Idaho Community Foundation Youth Trust Fund.
