About Riverview Hospital Association
OUR MISSION: To provide compassionate, affordable, state-of-the-art healthcare to our communities.
OUR VISION: Keys to Riverview Hospital Association's success:
We remain locally owned and governed to preserve patient choice.

Riverview Hospital Association was organized by community leaders in 1912 to operate a local hospital and otherwise fill the health care needs of Wisconsin Rapids, South Wood County and the surrounding areas. Riverview Hospital Association today remains one of the few independent, community-owned and operated health care providers in Wisconsin.
The Riverview Hospital Association owns and operates:
Riverview Hospital, established in 1912 and expanded many times over the years. The current hospital building opened at 410 Dewey Street in 1967, with additions in 1976, 1983, 1994, 2002 and 2003. The outpatient Riverview Rehabilitation Center moved to a community location in 1992 and currently is located northeast of the hospital's main parking lot in Riverview's Bethke Building, 1041 Hill Street.
Riverview Family Clinic, organized in 1996 to fill a community need for primary medical care in the physician office setting. This service includes offices in Wisconsin Rapids (4th Floor, Riverview East Medical Building), Nekoosa (Riverview Family Clinic Nekoosa) and the Rome-Lakes area (Lakes Area Medical Center).
UW Cancer Center Riverview, opened in 2003 in cooperation with UW Comprehensive Cancer Center, Madison, and UW Cancer Center Aspirus Wausau Hospital. UW Cancer Center Riverview provides a full range of cancer services including state-of-the-art Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). Patients have access to consultations and resources through the world-renowned UW Comprehensive Cancer Center, the only comprehensive cancer center in Wisconsin as designated by the National Cancer Institute.
Riverview Community Dental Clinic, located at 820 Two Mile Avenue in Wisconsin Rapids, was established in 2009 by Riverview Hospital Association to serve residents of South Wood County who are participants in the State of Wisconsin Medicaid or BadgerCare Plus programs.
In keeping with our mission to "to provide compassionate, affordable, state-of-the-art healthcare to our communities," Riverview Hospital Association has grown into more than a typical small community hospital. With the additions in the last 10 years of Riverview Family Clinic and UW Cancer Center Riverview, plus cooperative relationships with regional care providers, Riverview offers a wide array of specialty medical services that previously would have only been available in much larger systems. Our goal, with the support of the Riverview Health Care Foundation and the Riverview Hospital Auxiliary and the generosity of our community, is to invest in those services for which there is a compelling community need.
