Our staff, including six family practice physicians, is committed to fulfilling our mission to our community. We also employ many visiting physician specialists on a scheduled basis to provide outreach services. This convenient access allows our patients to receive the high-quality specialty care they need, while staying close to home. In many cases, the patient may be treated by a specialist in St. Cloud and receive follow-up care by the same specialist in Melrose.
