    Surgery

    Our surgeons are committed to putting the needs of our patients first. We believe in improving the health of individuals and the communities we serve. We strive to provide superb, timely surgical care for our patients. All of our breast, colorectal and general surgeons are certified by the American Board of Surgery. What this means is that the surgeon has met a standard in surgery by fulfilling specific requirements related to education, evaluation of credentials, and successful completion of written and oral examinations.

    Surgery and Your Primary Care Physician
    Patients may see a primary care provider regarding a health concern, who may then refer the patient to see a surgeon. A patient may also make an appointment to see a surgeon without seeing a primary care provider. However, patients should check with their insurance company prior to scheduling appointments if they are not referred by a primary care provider (see referrals and tests).

    Hours and Location:
    8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.
    Second floor of the La Crosse Campus Clinic Building

    General surgery services are also provided at the Sparta Campus by Christopher Huiras, M.D. and Nathan Uecker, M.D.

    Information and Appointments:
    Please call 608-392-9883

    Questions and Emergencies:
    You can call our office Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with any questions related to your surgical condition. A nurse will speak with you and advise you whenever possible. Please note we may need to speak to the physician and return your call later in the day. Also know that when problems cannot be resolved over the phone, you may need to be seen in the clinic. If urgent problems arise after regular business hours, please call the Nurse on Call at 608-392-9755 or 888-392-9755.

    Our department also works closely with the Center for Breast Care and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
