Aspirus consolidates Silver Bay and Two Harbors clinic operations
Aspirus will cut Silver Bay down to limited weekly care starting July 13, pushing most full-service visits and diagnostics to Two Harbors.
Starting July 13, primary care, lab and radiology will be available in Silver Bay only on Wednesdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., while therapy services will continue there Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. until the transition is complete.
Aspirus Health is consolidating its Silver Bay and Two Harbors Lake View clinics. The Silver Bay site, Aspirus Lake View Silver Bay Clinic at 50 Outer Drive, has long offered annual wellness visits, ECare, laboratory services, pulmonary medicine, X-rays, diabetes care, family medicine, physical therapy, and mental and behavioral health services. Aspirus will announce the final day of patient care in Silver Bay once that date is determined. For patients whose care shifts, the company will work with them to preserve continuity and, when needed, move services to the Two Harbors clinic at 325 11th Avenue.
More Lake County residents will have to travel to Two Harbors for full-service appointments, diagnostics and many of the routine visits they have historically scheduled in Silver Bay. The Two Harbors site has multiple specialties and an on-site retail pharmacy.
Greg Ruberg, president of Aspirus Lake View, said the organization remained committed to compassionate, high-quality care. Kim Terhaar, vice president of operations for Aspirus Medical Group, said the Silver Bay teams will transition to Two Harbors.
In 2020, Lake View completed a $15 million, 38,000-square-foot expansion that connected Lake View Hospital, Lake View Medical Clinic and Lake View Pharmacy into one building. The project added specialty clinic space, expanded lab services and an inpatient pharmacy, and was intended to support future infusion therapy and more convenient care.
Lake View has served the community since 1957. In April 2026, Aspirus Lake View ranked among the nation’s top 20 critical access hospitals for patient satisfaction, placing it in the top 1.5% of more than 1,350 critical access hospitals nationwide. Aspirus’ location directory listed the Silver Bay clinic as closed.
