Partnership Health Center will no longer provide dental services at its Seeley Lake clinic after July 30, 2026. Dr. Alyssa Harris, DMD, and Alexandra Pitman, RDH, will continue providing dental services at Partnership Health Center clinic sites in Missoula.
“We understand that this decision is disappointing,” said Lara Salazar, CEO of Partnership Health Center. “We care deeply about the Seeley Lake community and want to do everything we can to help continue providing health care to them.”
To help ease the transition and ensure continued access to care, Partnership Health Center is providing complimentary gas cards for patients’ first dental visit in Missoula upon request. In addition, the Seeley Lake Community Foundation’s I Ride program offers transportation to dental and medical appointments. Rides to Missoula are available for a small fee and require advance scheduling. For more information, please contact the Seeley Lake Community Foundation.
“We care about our patients in Seeley Lake, and we hope they will continue their care with us in Missoula,” said Dr. Jazmin Nelson, Dental Director. “Dr. Harris, Alexandra Pitman, and the rest of our dental team look forward to continuing those relationships and providing the same great care.”
To schedule an appointment at Partnership Health Center in Missoula, please call (406) 610-8181. Staff will help find a convenient appointment time and answer any questions about continuing your dental care with Partnership Health Center.
“We appreciate the trust you have placed in us over the years,” said Salazar. “It was a very hard decision. We remain committed to serving the community, but given the financial challenges facing healthcare organizations today, we had to make the most responsible decision we could for the long-term sustainability of our organization.”
