Aspirus has made the decision to temporarily close some clinics during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Aspirus clinics in the following locations will be closed or begin the process of closing until further notice:
- Adams

- Crystal Falls, Mich.
- Edgar
- Gilman
- Hurley
- Lake Linden, Mich.
- Marathon
- Nekoosa
- Prentice

“The decision to close locations, even on a temporary basis, is not an easy one but it is necessary in order to continue providing access to primary and specialty care in the safest way possible for our staff and patients,” said Matt Brewer, Vice President of Operations and Chief Nursing Officer of Aspirus Medical Group. “Closing these locations allows us to use staff and resources where they are needed most and ensure our hospitals are staffed appropriately to care for our communities during a possible surge in COVID-19 activity.”
Primary and specialty care will still be available at other clinics in North Central Wisconsin and Upper Michigan. Anyone with an appointment previously scheduled at one of these locations will be contacted to reschedule or move their appointment to another clinic.
