We all have our reasons why we give to certain organizations, charities,

or individuals. In 1913, Winneshiek County residents gave to build a local hospital they could be proud of. According to the Decorah Public Opinion, June 18, 1913, “They were called upon to give to show their generosity, their public spirit, their belief in Winneshiek County, and their gratitude that they were alive in 1913.”

Winneshiek Medical Center is celebrating 100 years of hope, health, and healing this year. It has grown into a vital and vibrant health care hub for our region. Why? Because people like you, believed in and supported the medical center from the very beginning.

The Winneshiek Medical Center Foundation Board of Directors want to thank our past, present and future donors for believing in the vision and mission of local health care. Thank you for moving us into the next 100 years of service to our region.

Joyce Langreck made history

laparoscopic gallbladder patient at Winneshiek Medical Center in 1991. Recalling her experience, Joyce says, “I knew all the people in the room and I knew they would take good care of me.” It was her

medical team that changed the course of general surgery in our community.

Joyce was diagnosed with gallstones by Terry Dynes, M.D., a Mayo Clinic Health System provider at Decorah Clinic. Joyce says, “He told me I was a good candidate for a new surgery Dr. Joseph Callaghan, the local general surgeon, and the surgical staff had been training to perform.” The new procedure was a laparoscopic gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy), which would remove Joyce’s gallbladder through small cuts (incisions) in the abdomen instead of the traditional surgery that would openly expose the internal organs with a large incision.

There were a number of advantages to this new procedure, such as: less scarring, less blood loss, shorter recovery time, reduced risk of exposing internal organs to contaminants, less need for pain medication and a quicker return to normal activities/work.

“Dr. Callaghan told me I would

because I felt like I could trust him,” says Joyce. “The day of my surgery I was most scared about being put to sleep, but my nurse, Pat Courtney, told me that was the easiest part and they would take good care of me. When I saw all those faces of people I knew, I had faith in them and felt more comfortable than if I was in a big hospital where I wouldn’t know anyone.”

Dr. Callaghan’s procedure was a success. Joyce recalls, “The next morning I took a shower and when

I came back to my room, Dr. Callaghan and all the staff were in the hallway clapping for me – it was so personal – I’ll never forget it.” Joyce was discharged from the hospital the next day and returned to work in just a week.

procedure with Joyce, WMC general surgeons have performed nearly 2,500 laparoscopic procedures including

gallbladders, appendectomies, colon resections, hysterectomies, and more.

surgeons, with 88 collective years of experience, provide 24 hour coverage at Winneshiek Medical Center. They are Mayo Clinic Health System providers, Steven Davis, M.D. and Hamid Kakavandi, D.O., and Gundersen Health System providers Scott

Bierman, M.D., Phillip Yee, M.D. and Michael LaBelle, M.D. In addition to these general surgeons, WMC is home to local surgeons who specialize in gynecology, ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat), podiatry, orthopedics and urology. Outreach ophthalmologists from Mayo Clinic in Rochester and Gundersen Health System in La Crosse also perform cataract removal at Winneshiek Medical Center.

Regardless of where you receive your clinical care, or whether your surgery is planned or unexpected, the expert surgical team at Winneshiek Medical Center is prepared to serve, to care and to heal – every day, every hour, every minute. Visit www.winmedical.org/surgery to learn more.

100 years ago, a group of forward-thinking

Winneshiek County citizens had a vision: to build a hospital to support a healthy, vibrant and lasting community for future generations.

Today, Winneshiek Medical Center continues the 100-year legacy of providing quality and compassionate care. With an active medical staff of nearly 30 Mayo Clinic Health System and Gundersen Lutheran physicians, and primary and specialty clinics in Decorah, Ossian and Mabel, Minnesota, Winneshiek Medical Center has grown to become the largest and most specialized hospital in the region.

In 1914, one surgeon oversaw the care of injury and illness. One hundred years after the opening of Decorah Hospital, our services include multi-specialty surgical

services; MRI, CT Scan, x-ray and digital mammography led by an on-site radiologist; and rehabilitation and sports medicine clinics in Decorah, Calmar, Postville, and Spring Grove, MN, with outreach to area schools and nursing homes. We offer diabetes education; home medical equipment; home health and hospice; a hospitalist program for 24-hour inpatient care; a swing-bed program for skilled nursing care for rehabilitation and recovery; and obstetrics services provided by both area physician groups. Winneshiek Medical Center also provides urgent care, a 24/7 emergency room and ambulance service staffed by Mayo Clinic Health System physicians, specialized nursing staff and paramedics.

Our founders were motivated to provide health care for their

family, friends and neighbors, while strengthening the community they called home. WMC furthers their vision as we set our sights on the future. We continue our commitment to our community by hiring skilled, compassionate staff, by bringing the newest medical technology into our region, and by providing care in a way that maintains the personal experience of a community hospital, but assures patients that they are receiving the very best in health care.

Winneshiek Medical Center shares the sentiments of our founders regarding the value of our community and the efforts necessary to not only to better the medical center, but to make it thrive. We look forward to partnering with and serving our region for the next 100 years.

But I do know that I gave a little piece of myself to each of them and they to me and those threads make up the beautiful tapestry in my mind that is my career in nursing. – Donna Wilk Cardillo

Patient Online Services is a secure, interactive web program that allows patients and their families to take a more active role in their care, and is conveniently available through Winneshiek Medical Center’s website at www.winmedical.org.

Patient Online Services allows you to:

• Request and track appointments with Winneshiek Medical Center health care providers in the Decorah, Ossian and Mabel clinics.• Exchange secure messages with your health care team. • Obtain access to health information,

including laboratory results, medications, immunizations, allergies, personal information, visit history, discharge/aftercare information, and more.• Submit updates to personal information prior to your visit.

“Patient Online Services helps us meet the needs of our patients in an increasingly online environment,” says Tyler Menke, M.D., Mayo Clinic Health System family medicine physician at Winneshiek Medical Center. “It is a great way for busy families to stay in touch with their health care provider. By sending us secure messages, we

can communicate with patients between appointments to answer questions or provide guidance on a health concern.”

Patient Online Services is available to adults age 18 and older, and parents/guardians can obtain access for children age 12 and under. Youth ages 13-17 are not eligible for a Patient Online Services account. Individuals managing another adult’s health care can also obtain access to their online record after completing the required consent forms in person at WMC.
