Upper Mississippi Surgery Center could open next month

A cutting-edge surgical center is nearing completion in southwest Wisconsin. Construction has concluded on Upper Mississippi Surgery Center, and staff members now are working to receive the necessary regulatory approvals to open the space to outpatient surgical clients. Pending those approvals, the center could open as soon as next month. Upper Mississippi Surgery Center in Jamestown Township, is led by 10 independent practitioners from Dubuque Podiatry, Dubuque Surgery, Dubuque Orthopedic Surgeons and Dubuque ENT Head & Neck Surgery. The group decided to locate the center in Jamestown because it will still be close to the providers’ Dubuque base while also offering a chance to expand into southwest Wisconsin and northwest Illinois. Construction on the project began in 2023 and concluded in late 2024. In total, 15 to 20 practitioners are expected to use the space for a variety of outpatient services.
