Wisconsin Orthopedics expands facility and services to enhance patient care

Wisconsin River Orthopaedics is enhancing its services and facilities to better serve the community, as highlighted during a recent seminar held on April 17, 2025, in Wisconsin Rapids. Dr. Todd Dillman, a key figure at the clinic, shared insights about the clinic's history, growth, and future plans.

Established in 1968, Wisconsin River Orthopaedics has evolved significantly over the years. Dr. Dillman introduced the clinic's current team of five surgeons, including recent additions to their specialties, such as a foot and ankle surgeon. This expansion reflects the clinic's commitment to providing comprehensive orthopedic care.

The facility itself has undergone substantial upgrades, including a doubling of its size and the addition of an overnight stay capability for patients undergoing surgery. This enhancement was particularly timely, as it coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing patients to receive care in a more comfortable environment. The clinic also expanded its operating room space and upgraded its x-ray capabilities to accommodate the growing number of physicians and patients.

Dr. Dillman emphasized the importance of continuous improvement in healthcare, noting that regular renovations are essential to keep pace with advancements in medical practices. The recent remodel not only modernizes the clinic but also ensures that it remains a vital resource for the community.

As Wisconsin River Orthopaedics continues to grow, the clinic remains dedicated to its mission of providing high-quality orthopedic care, ensuring that residents of Wisconsin Rapids have access to the services they need for better health outcomes.
