Gritman Medical Center is a critical access, not-for-profit hospital in the western United States, located in Moscow, Idaho.

Dr. Gritman began providing care to the Moscow community in 1893, visiting patients throughout Latah County by horse and buggy.

In 1897, he purchased the former McGregor Hotel, at the southeast corner of Seventh and Main Streets, and opened the doors of the original Gritman hospital.

This group adapted into a non-profit organization that later became the Gritman Medical Center General Membership, a body still active today from which the hospital selects its board of directors.

A second-floor ramp connected the new building to the old hospital structure (former McGregor Hotel), which was being used as storage and emergency overflow.

The east wing of the hospital, opened in 1974, included more beds, laboratories, a radiology department, and a new lobby and gift shop.

In 1987, a new diagnostic imaging wing opened, creating the space for the hospital to add new medical technology and provide more services to the Moscow community.

Continuing to seek to deliver the best in health care to the Moscow community, Gritman announced a $4.6 million renovation in 1994.

[6][7][8][9] The project added 50,000 square feet (4,650 m2) of space to the hospital in 1994, giving room for more clinical, surgical, and administrative services.
