Thursday, May 4th, 2017 -- 10:06 AM
-This week Memorial Medical Center submitted a site plan to the USDA as the next step in theprocess of building the future medical center.
The plans intend for Snitemans pharmacy and the Art of Optometry to establish a presence in the new building. "Sniteman Pharmacy is excited about the opportunity to partner with Memorial Medical Center by providing a retail pharmacy space within their new facility. We believe this will allow us to continue to provide exceptional pharmacy care to our patients well in to the future. Patient's will have the benefit of convenient parking, handicap accessibility, the ability to pick up prescriptions immediately following medical appointments, and access to highly qualified pharmacists who can answer their medication questions. This new facility will be a great addition to our community." Kristen Weiler-Nytes Pharm. D., owner Sniteman Pharmacy.
Dr. Hanson O.D., owner of Art of Optometry, approached MMC several months ago to collaborate on a program that would return cataract surgery back to MMC. “Art of Optometry and MMC share many patients, to work side by side with the MMC medical staff will not only be comprehensive healthcare but also very convenient”, Dr. Mark Hanson O.D..
The submitted site plan also includes the Neillsville Care and Rehab center, a geothermal field and a potential community wellness center. “The community wants and needs a wellness center. We are currently working with a potential partner for making the community wellness center a reality on opening day.” Ryan Neville, CEO MMC. “The project continues to expand to allow one location for trauma care, primary/specialty care, inpatient/outpatient services, same day surgery, wellness, extended care facility, and now pharmacy and optometry makes this very unique and special for a rural community.” If you have any questions or concerns you can contact MMC’s CEO Ryan Neville at [email protected]
