  • In partnership with our local orthopedic surgeons, we have received national recognition for our surgical procedures for Total Joint Replacements and for Laminectomies.

  • We are the sole community provider of hospital services in Lewis County and understand our role in the health of community.

  • We are proud to be the largest employer in our county and take our role in the economic health of our community very seriously.
