Sturgis Memorial Hospital was built in 1925 with an endowment from
the estate of William C. Grobhiser. A new facility, Sturgis Hospital
located at 916 Myrtle Avenue, Sturgis, was build in 1970, with an
expansion completed in 1981. The original Grobhiser building was originally
renovated in 1992 to house physician offices, and later remodeled
again to accommodate the addition of specialty clinics and more physician
offices. In 2005 a $15 million dollar expansion was undertaken to
construct the new Birthing Center and remodel and update our surgical
facilities.
Sturgis Hospital is a 84-bed licensed, acute care facility. Nearly
