Where healing
meets helping
Our love for community shows in the level of care we provide, professionals we employ, capital improvements made to ensure future healthcare needs are met, economic impact generated and contributions added to the tax base to fund vital services. Plus, we’ve been able to donate millions of dollars in healthcare to neighbors in need, regardless of their ability to pay. Because we live here, it’s our pleasure to support and volunteer with local schools, Ottumwa Symphony and a variety of community-building initiatives.
