The Heart of Healthcare: Moments with Laura Eggert

“Radiology is the perfect mix of science and art, but at the center of it all is patient care.” For Laura Eggert, Radiology isn’t just a career, it’s a field full of opportunity, growth, and impact. “There are so many paths you can take X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound and more. You can build a career that evolves with you.” But what truly sets her work apart? “The work is similar wherever you go, but the people make all the difference. And here, we have something special.” At Cherry County Hospital, Laura cares for more than just patients. “I get to care for my friends, family, and neighbors every day.”

🔍 Did you know?
Ultrasound, also called sonography, uses sound waves to create images inside the body. “Most people think of pregnancy scans, but we can also look at organs, veins, arteries, thyroids, lymph nodes, and so much more.” From advanced technology to meaningful connections, this is what local healthcare looks like.

💙Meet Our New Wound Care Specialist 💙
Cherry County Hospital & Clinic is proud to welcome Justina Burge, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, as our local Wound Care Specialist serving Valentine and surrounding communities.

For many of you, Justina is already a familiar face—and that’s exactly what makes this so special. She’s not just providing care here… she’s caring for her own community. "Valentine is home and where the heart is. I love the fact that I can care for the people who have played such a big part in my own life."

Justina brings advanced training and a passion for helping patients heal—offering care for chronic wounds, diabetic ulcers, post-surgical healing, pressure injuries, and more. With specialized treatments like wound VAC therapy, compression therapy, and advanced dressings, patients can now receive high-quality wound care without leaving the area.

But what truly sets her apart is her whole-person approach:
"Caring for our overall health is important in preventive health… I want to help patients improve their health by making monthly goals together."

This is more than a new service—it’s a stronger, more connected level of care for our community.

If you or a loved one could benefit from wound care or chronic care management, we’re here for you. Call Cherry County Hospital & Clinic to learn more or schedule an appointment.

This month, we had the honor of celebrating the retirement of two incredible women who have given so much to Cherry County Hospital & Clinic.

Dee Hoefs served in our Admissions department for the past three years. Many of you were likely greeted by Dee as she checked you in—always with a friendly face and a willingness to help make your visit a little easier.

Peggy Boyer dedicated nearly nine years to our team, working behind the scenes to navigate prior authorizations and ensure patients received the care they needed. Her hard work, persistence, and commitment made a lasting impact on both our patients and our staff.

Both Dee and Peggy will be deeply missed, but we couldn’t be happier for them as they step into this next chapter.
Please join us in thanking them for their years of service and wishing them all the best in retirement. ❤️
