Surgery With a Hometown Connection
April 17, 2024
WHETHER YOU COME in for a scheduled joint replacement or an emergency appendix surgery, the HRMC surgical team provides the care you need with connections that make you feel a
t ease. “You don’t have to sacrifice quality for convenience or vice versa,” says Cy Haatvedt, MD, chief medical officer at HRMC. “You can get state-ofthe-art care here at HRMC from folks who live in the area.”
SURGICAL CARE TAILORED TO YOU
HRMC’s skilled general and orthopedic surgeons provide a variety of procedures using leading techniques and advanced technology, including robotic-assisted surgery for total joint and hip replacements. Our team offers surgical treatment for conditions related to the breast, colon, gallbladder, joints and more. We also provide preventive procedures, such as colonoscopies. “The range of surgical services we offer can save people from having to travel hundreds of miles,” says Terry Larsen, DO, general surgeon at HRMC. “Our surgeons perform many of the same procedures offered in larger metropolitan areas. We do them locally, and we do them well.”
NEIGHBORS CARING FOR NEIGHBORS
In addition to outstanding services, HRMC surgeons offer personalized care from people you already know and trust. “At HRMC, you don’t come in feeling like a stranger,” Dr. Haatvedt says. “You come in feeling like a member of the community, and you’re taken care of by your friends and neighbors. After surgery, you can wake up from anesthesia and look at a familiar face. I think that’s comforting.”
TRUSTED COLLEAGUES
Before providers are granted privileges to work at Huron Regional Medical Center, credentialing specialist LaNette Kouf reviews their backgrounds, certification, licenses, qualifications and
references, giving her unique insight into who she would choose for her own medical care. When Kouf needed a colonoscopy, she knew she could trust HRMC general surgeon Terry Larsen, DO, to deliver expert, compassionate care. “Dr. Larsen was great to work with in his onboarding, and I had confidence in his abilities,” Kouf says. “He explained everything, and the team was wonderful, as well, from registration to nursing to anesthesia. It’s so nice to be able to get an important procedure like this done right here in Huron.”
