LITTLE FALLS, N.Y. — Little Falls Hospital in Herkimer County anticipates groundbreaking this spring for a new 5,000-square-foot, primary-care clinic in Dolgeville.
The project’s estimated cost is about $3 million and will rely on grants, foundation support, and donations from the greater Dolgeville community, the hospital said in a news release.
The hospital initiated design work for the new primary-care center following the purchase of 1.28 acres from the Dolgeville Central School last fall, per Michael Ogden, president of Little Falls Hospital, which is a part of the Cooperstown–based Bassett Healthcare Network.

The new Dolgeville primary-care center will replace the current facility on Gibson Street. The hospital is developing a certificate of need (CON) application that it will submit to the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) for approval before construction can start.
Pending NYSDOH approval, Little Falls Hospital expects to complete the project six months after the groundbreaking.
The design work on the project continues and current plans call for a one-story, medical office building that can accommodate four practitioners, per the release.
The new space will feature eight exams rooms, offices and a laboratory, and “many other related ancillary spaces.”
The design also includes a 2,000-square-foot addition for the purpose of hosting space for community health and “wellness-related purposes.” This space will be available for health and wellness education; lifestyle classes; and to support other community-based organizations “whose goals are to provide positive health benefits for the community.”
