Surgery

Surgical services are provided in Sparta by Franciscan Healthcare physicians and surgeons from La Crosse.  Two board certified general surgeons – Drs. Christopher Huiras and Nathaniel Uecker – visit Sparta to provide consultations and general procedures including surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome, hernias, hemorrhoids, and lipomas (fatty tumors) as well as colonoscopy. Surgical services are available twice a week.

A number of same day surgeries and procedures in the following specialties can also be done in Sparta: otolaryngology (ear, nose and throat), optometry, orthopedics, podiatry and pediatric dentistry.

For additional information about surgical services available in Sparta, call 608-269-1770 or speak with your primary care provider. Surgical procedures are based on referrals from your primary provider.

Appointments are offered via facility-to-facility video visits, which reduce the need to travel far and enable patients to receive care close to home.

For a facility-to-facility video visit, patients arrive to the clinic and a nurse connects them with the specialist via video. The innovative technology uses a Bluetooth stethoscope, a USB otoscope and high definition cameras that can move and zoom in for a high-quality physical exam and personal conversation with the specialist.

Video appointments are currently offered at select locations in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Learn more about facility-to-facility video appointments.
