Horn Memorial Hospital has been busy expanding outpatient services. Within the past month, sports medicine, home sleep studies, and a pain clinic have been added to the already impressive list of outpatient services provided locally at Horn Memorial Hospital. In addition, the OB/GYN clinic has increased to a weekly schedule and dermatology services have returned. This expansion is a reflection of Horn’s ongoing efforts to provide as many services as possible locally to our patients.
The Pain Clinic, provided by Charlie Delaney, CRNA, provides consultations and relief for many types of back pain. Patients who suffer with lower back pain, shooting pain down their leg, numbness, and other similar symptoms may find relief through an injection procedure. This service is provided by referral only; you must first see your healthcare provider to determine if you are a candidate for a pain relief injection.
Home Sleep Studies are now provided through the Respiratory Therapy Department. Pat Stevens, Respiratory Therapy Director, was instrumental in seeing the need for this up and coming alternative to detect sleep apnea. Pat states “patients often put off a sleep test to avoid the in-house sleep lab experience. I find that with a home sleep study, patients can be in the comfort of their own home and get similar and sometimes even better results.” Talk with your healthcare provider to see if you would benefit from a home sleep study.
Sports Medicine, now offered by Dr. Benjamin Bissell, expands orthopaedic services provided by Dr. Steven Meyer. Dr. Bissell comes from CNOS in Dakota Dunes, and is a board certified and fellowship trained orthopaedic sports medicine surgeon. He will provide expert care in both sports medicine and general orthopaedics. His expertise includes hip arthroscopy, complex shoulder arthroscopy, knee stabilization including ACL reconstruction, shoulder and knee arthroscopy and general orthopaedic trauma. Dr. Bissell will see patients at Horn Memorial Hospital on Monday afternoons and Dr. Meyer will continue to see patients on Wednesdays. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Bissell or Dr. Meyer call 605.217.2667.
Dr. Karl Hasik, OB/GYN, recently increased his clinic schedule at Horn Memorial to weekly. He will now see patients every Wednesday morning for prenatal care and women’s health issues. Horn Memorial manages the scheduling for Dr. Hasik’s clinic, call 364.3311 for an appointment.
Dermatology Services have returned effective October 8th.
