Dr. Cy Haatvedt, general surgeon and Chief Medical Officer, recently released a letter to patients, colleagues and friends, announcing the discontinuation of his clinical practice after nearly 30 years of providing general surgery services to the community. Dr. Cy remains in service as Chief Medical Officer at HRMC. Find the letter below:
Dear friends,
It has been my great privilege to have helped care for so many of you and your loved ones over the past 29-plus years. The confidence and trust you have shown me during this time has provided me with a profound sense of gratitude and satisfaction. I feel quite blessed to have found this community, where I have been welcomed from the very beginning, and continue to feel the warmth and acceptance of the folks of Huron.
After nearly thirty years of practicing medicine and surgery in the Huron community, I have made the decision to set aside my clinical practice. As of December 31, 2023, I will no longer perform patient exams or schedule procedures.
I would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank you!” to each one of my patients and their families. Many have come to be friends, and the relationships that have developed have given so much richness to my life. In addition, I would like to thank my colleagues for their support and confidence. Dr. Robert Hohm deserves a special thanks for his mentorship and fellowship.
My deepest appreciation and fondness go to the surgery nurses, techs and anesthetists with whom many days, weekends and nights have been spent. These people all deserve kudos…they have supported me and have made me better than I am. The administration, Medical Staff and nursing staff, along with all the support staff including lab, X-ray, maintenance, dietary and others too numerous to mention at Huron Regional Medical Center likewise have my enduring gratitude. Lastly, I am grateful to my wife, Teresa, and my family for the support throughout my fulfilling career.
As I look forward to the next stage of life, I will continue to enjoy being part of this wonderful place we call home and will remain at HRMC as Chief Medical Officer where I look to ensure we continue to provide excellent, compassionate care to each of you, including general surgery services with
Dr. Anthony Loewen and Dr. Terry Larsen. Once again, I thank you all!
Sincerely,
Dr. Cy B. Haatvedt
Chief Medical Officer
