We have experienced great listening and authentic concern with good recommendations, whether medical or a referral, from all staff we have encountered. We feel very lucky to have such qualified staff at the clinic and ER in a smaller community. Indeed, not just one doctor, but all we have had consults with are consistent with quality care.
My overall experience was so positive. The staff from clinic to hospital to homecare were personable, warm, and caring. The hospital and staff have improved greatly since I moved here in 1979, yet the small town warmth still comes through. Thank you for the wonderful service.
My husband, Aaron, and I gave birth to our baby boy, Owen, on March 2nd at GRHS. We reflected on our delivery and stay experience at GRHS so many times and agreed that it was a 100% positive experience. We were so happy and impressed by the care we received, the beautiful new facility, and just by the staff in general.
I was 30 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child and wasn’t happy with the care I was receiving at a different facility. I had one appointment and that’s all it took to know that I wanted to deliver my baby at Glacial Ridge. When it came time for delivery (via c-section), it was a little scary but everyone truly sticks to the motto of heartfelt care; we were treated like family by everyone we encountered. I have NEVER felt so at ease about being in a hospital as I did at Glacial Ridge. The care is truly ABOVE and BEYOND! I’m still in shock at how genuine everyone was!
The care was excellent and the staff is not like any hospital I’ve ever been in or visited. Everyone that stepped into my room was just wonderful including the nurses, Dr. Schlueter, and physical therapists – EVERYONE. They were all kind, smiled, and there was never a delay in response to my call light. My experience was wonderful.
Moving to this area from the Twin Cities, we were unsure of the level of medical care that would be available. We are pleased to have encountered excellent professional medical care in the Glacial Ridge System. Doctors, technicians, office staff – all have provided excellent and friendly care. This quality service has meant a lot to us each time we needed medical care. We are glad to make this our home, and to be served by Glacial Ridge.
I was amazed at the care and concern from the staff at GRHS. They kept me updated on what was happening and what was going to happen. The doctors, nurses, and anesthetist were just great. I would highly recommend GRHS.
Glacial Ridge Health System is committed to providing the highest level of heartfelt care for you and your family—but the COVID-19 situation in our community is making it more challenging by the day. Hospital beds are at or near capacity here and around the state—including the hospitals to which we would normally send our most critically ill patients—our Emergency Department is crowded, and our staff is fatigued.
For nearly two years, our physicians, providers, nurses, and staff have been working tirelessly to care for you and your loved ones during the COVID-19 pandemic. You stepped up to help us early in the pandemic—now we are asking for your help to get through these tough times once again.
We are experiencing high call volume and appreciate your patience and understanding if it takes longer than usual for your call to be answered.
Please get your COVID vaccines and booster shots.

Thank you for your support.
