Message from the CEO

On behalf of McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center, welcome to our website. We hope that you will find our site informative and helpful in making choices concerning your healthcare needs.

Throughout our 50-year history, McKenzie-Willamette’s commitment has remained steadfast -- to improve our community’s health and quality of life, and care for our patients in extraordinary ways. This commitment means that we strive to bring the latest advances in medicine and medical technology to our community, along with highly trained, competent staff, and patient-centered partnerships with excellent physicians.

We now offer heart surgery for the first time in Springfield’s history, and continue to add to our list of interventional cardiology services. We also have the da Vinci Robotic-assisted Surgery System -- making minimally invasive surgery a choice for our patients. In addition to the Heart Center, we have added other new services, such as a Sleep Solutions Center, and in our Diagnostic Imaging, CT scan and MRI services, as well as an Advanced Wound Center.

We are pioneering a new and comprehensive clinical automation system, including bedside charting and electronic patient records, that will help us improve patient safety and quality of care. Our new system will give physicians secure access to patient records from office or home.

Along with our plans for building and moving to a brand new hospital, we continue to improve our current site at 1460 G Street in Springfield, most recently implementing a $5.5 million facility improvement plan.

McKenzie-Willamette recognizes our responsibility to continue to improve our services in the community and to contribute to the good health of those we serve by offering the latest healthcare innovations whenever possible.

We hope you enjoy exploring our website, and find the services and health information useful. For further assistance, please contact us at wecare@mckweb.com or at 541.726.4400.
