The Foundation of Beyond Medicine

It’s Our Passion. Driven by our Passion for Patient Care, we are redesigning our health care delivery and facilities to put the patient at the center of everything we do. By creating this new model of care that gives the patient access and control in a safe and healing environment, Columbia St. Mary’s is transforming the patient experience.

It’s Our Responsibility. We have an obligation to our patients and to our community to go beyond in all that we do. We will provide the highest quality care using evidence-based design that is timely, effective, and offers a unique healing environment.

It’s Our Vision. The new Columbia St. Mary’s Lake Drive Campus will go beyond medicine by providing health care that is patient-centered, respectful, and efficient. As we continue to have the best interest of the patient at heart, we will serve as a role model for future hospitals throughout the country.

It’s Our Legacy. Our passion for, and dedication to Milwaukee and southeastern Wisconsin began 157 years ago thanks to the pioneering efforts of the Daughters of Charity soon followed by the visionary leaders who founded Columbia Hospital. Over the years, we’ve established four hospitals, 27 medical clinics, and free community clinics to better serve our communities. We’re creating a hospital experience that will serve our patients today and for many years to come.
