Similar History

Mayo Clinic and WK were both started by physicians who cared deeply about patients and their health. This collaboration allows both organizations to share best practices.

What is the Mayo Clinic Care Network

Being a part of the Mayo Clinic Care Network affords WK access to carefully vetted clinical tools, patient education resources and collaborative consultation with physicians, nurses and administrators to produce the best results for our patients and community.

Mayo Chose WK

The process for WK becoming a member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network was carefully considered and measured. Mayo looks for members whose culture and quality of care fits within their own vision and mission. 

Subspecialists

With over 7,000 physician specialists at Mayo Clinic, WK has access to contact and consult with many providers who can assist in meeting the unique needs of our patients.

Extension of Your Staff

The collaboration with Mayo Clinic Care Network provides resources for WK staff and providers in the form of electronic tools, patient education and healthcare consulting. What it does not do is restrict the referral patterns for our providers. It is an opportunity for WK experts to consult with Mayo Clinic experts to provide the best care possible for our patients.

Close to Home

Most people want to receive care at home with providers that they know and trust. This collaboration allows our physicians to keep patients at home.

Research and Development

WK continues to provide quality care to our patients and the research and expertise available through Mayo Clinic is another resource for our staff.
