Coronavirus (COVID-19) update
In order to prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), we’re making it safer and easier for you to get the care you need. With that in mind, video visits and phone visits are often available.
Video chat with our doctors on any device to get personalized care and treatment.
Call your clinic to see if a video or phone visit is an option for you.
A note on in-person clinic visits: For our patients’ safety, we’re delaying all in-person clinic visits, elective surgeries and nonessential radiology services during the COVID-19 outbreak. If you have an existing appointment, we’ll call you and help you reschedule.
Hudson Hospital & Clinic Surgery Center provides a safe, convenient, high-quality outpatient service for patients of all ages, including children over six months old. For your convenience, we offer the entire surgical experience, from admission to discharge.
We have private pre-op rooms, three state-of-the-art operating suites, and private post-surgical recovery rooms. Designed to make your experience as comfortable as possible, the Surgery Center offers caring, highly trained staff that guide you through the process in a healing environment.
Caring, skilled staff
Our entire staff makes every effort to ensure you have a positive experience while in our care. Our goal is to have you and your support person fully informed about your care before, during and after surgery.
You will be cared for by highly competent nurses, surgical technologists and patient care assistants, all of whom maintain skills through continuing education. In addition, Board Certified Anethesiologists and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists maintain the safest and most current methods of delivering anesthesia during surgery. They also provide consultation and care for patients who are recovering from surgery.
Communication
Family and/or support persons are welcome to remain with you prior to surgery and will be updated following your procedure. A pager is provided which will notify them when surgery is complete and of any updates during surgery.
What to Expect

Children’s Surgery Tour
We offer a special tour called Sneak Peek for children having surgery. The tour lasts about 45 minutes and is designed to help reduce anxiety and fear sometimes experienced by young children. To schedule a surgery tour call 715-531-6520.
Personalized Joint Replacement Education
Personalized education for patients having hip or knee replacement surgery is available. You will learn how best to prepare your body and home for a safe rehabilitation and recovery. When you are scheduled for joint surgery, you will receive a call to schedule your education.
