At Vista Health System, we strive to bring you current technology and surgical procedures, and more importantly, highly trained professionals. Quality people means quality care. We think you'll find our staff has the unbeatable combination of warm, caring attitudes and high-tech knowledge.

Vista Health System today continues to grow by offering many new and expanded services to provide the highest level of patient care. One of the keys to our success is our ability to partner with the best physicians that we recruit from the Chicago area and around the country. We have approximately 400 physicians on staff who cover the full range of medical care, including advanced procedures such as open-heart surgery and complex neurosurgery. Our staff includes the growing Vista Physician Group of about 30 primary care providers and specialists who see patients in our hospitals, outpatient facilities and practice offices throughout Lake County.

At the same time, we are investing in our future with new and expanded facilities. Some examples include our Freestanding Emergency Center and Medical Office Building on our Lindenhurst campus, while at Vista Medical Center East in Waukegan we’ve opened our completely renovated 2W Patient Care Unit. Plus, we continue to add the latest in leading-edge technology, such as the da Vinci® Xi Surgical System for robotic-assisted surgery.

At Vista Health System, we are devoted to excellence in our patients’ health care. We have worked hard to achieve status as certified Centers of Excellence in a number of the most critical areas of patient care, and we will continue to measure ourselves to the highest standards. 

Quality Care, Close to Home.
