New Hospital Coming To Fond du Lac

ThedaCare and Froedtert Health have announced a joint partnership in bringing new healthcare facilities to Fond du Lac and Oshkosh.

As a part of the joint venture, the partner organizations will be creating two health campuses that include hospital and outpatient care services.

According to a statement from Froedtert, The health campuses will provide patients with convenient access to high-quality health care.

The smaller-scale, modern community hospitals will offer easy, around-the-clock access to emergency and inpatient care in a highly efficient setting.

The hospitals will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

The Fond du Lac campus is expected to be approximately 18,000 sq. ft., with an estimated cost of $35 million, and will be located where the abandoned Younkers building now sits.

The Oshkosh campus is expected to be approximately 58,000 sq. ft., with an estimated cost of $76 million, and will be built on the east side of the downtown area.

Each hospital is expected to have emergency care, inpatient beds and 24/7 coverage with board-certified emergency physicians.

Groundbreaking on the health campuses is expected to take place in spring of next year, with project completion sometime in 2024.
