Terese Haasken, a certified physician assistant, recently started seeing patients at Glencoe Regional Health Services (GRHS). With more than nine years of experience in orthopedics, she specializes in injuries and conditions affecting the bones, muscles and joints.
“It’s an exciting time to be here because GRHS is expanding its orthopedic department and building a new third-floor addition for rehabilitation services,” Haasken said. “Patients will find they can stay close to home and receive comprehensive care — from diagnosis right through surgery and rehabilitation if needed — for almost every type of orthopedic condition.”
Haasken provides specialized orthopedic care to GRHS patients of all ages, which includes physical examinations, evaluating pain, ordering lab tests and imaging studies, prescribing medications, giving injections, fitting splints and explaining surgical treatment options. She also assists GRHS orthopedic surgeon Paul Damrow in the operating room and provides post-surgical follow-up care.
