A Letter from Lynda Barrie, CEO of Orthopedic Institute
One month ago, we opened the doors to our new state-of-the-art facility in Tea, South Dakota, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience so far. This new space has been designed with our patients in mind, providing easy access, expanded services, and a more collaborative environment for our entire team.
Our new location just off Interstate 29 has already proven to be a major advantage for our patients, especially those coming from outlying areas. Instead of navigating the heart of Sioux Falls, they can now easily reach us with convenient access and ample parking. The transition has been seamless, and we are loving the opportunity to serve our patients in a space that truly reflects the excellence and innovation that Orthopedic Institute stands for.
One of the most exciting aspects of our new facility is the expanded square footage, 50% more than our previous location. This extra space has allowed us to create a more efficient, patient-friendly environment. Our beautiful atrium features five separate entrances leading to various clinical areas, making it easier for our patients—many of whom face mobility challenges—to get where they need to go with ease.
Perhaps one of the most impactful benefits of our move is having Orthopedic Institute Performance under the same roof. This integration is a game-changer for our patients, allowing them to easily transition from physician consultations to physical and occupational therapy, and even performance training—all in one location. The ability to collaborate in real-time with our team of experts enhances the level of care we provide and helps our patients recover faster and perform at their best.
We are incredibly grateful for the warm reception we have received in our new location and for the continued trust of our patients. As we move forward, we remain committed to delivering top-tier orthopedic care, innovative treatments, and the personalized attention our community has come to expect from Orthopedic Institute.
If you haven’t visited our new facility yet, we invite you to experience the difference for yourself! We’re hosting a special ribbon-cutting event on April 10th at 4:30 PM, and we’d love for you to be part of this exciting milestone. Come tour the new space, meet our expert team, and enjoy refreshments as we mark this new chapter in orthopedic care. We can’t wait to see you there!
Thank you for being part of this exciting journey with us!
