Megan Phelps, MD

University of Washington School of Medicine

Hello! I’m Megan. A potato through and through. I was born and raised in Pocatello, Idaho and attended college at the College of Idaho (Go Yotes!). There I studied Biology and Spanish and made lifelong friends on the alpine ski team. While in college, I spent a summer teaching English in the Dominican Republic. I also spent another summer working in the clinic and volunteering on the ambulance in Stanley, Idaho. Through these experiences, I found a passion for rural medicine and working with the Latinx community.

After that, I attended medical school at University of Washington. From there I returned to my continuity community in Hailey, Idaho as a part of the Target Rural Underserved Tract (TRUST). My interests in medicine include: full-spectrum family medicine, obstetrics, sports medicine, and working with the Latinx community.

When not in the hospital, you can find me running around with my dog, Macki, and going on adventures with my partner, Nathaniel. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, skiing, fly-fishing and trail running. I am absolutely thrilled to have matched at FMRI-Boise, and I hope to stay in Idaho and serve my community as a small town Family Doc!
