As a healthcare organization in the northern most region of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, we know that local access to care is critically important and an obligation that is met with all of our resources and attention. The Keweenaw Peninsula is the Northwestern four-county area of Michigan’s ruggedly beautiful Upper Peninsula. This scenic peninsula jutting out into Lake Superior is home to a warm, family-oriented community with excellent schools, a thriving arts scene and world-class year-round outdoor recreation.

UP Health System – Portage has been serving the Western Upper Peninsula of Michigan since 1896. The hospital and its outlying clinics support a multi-specialty group of over 40 physicians and over a dozen allied health professionals. The main campus is a 36-bed hospital with ancillary services including the area’s only Open Bore MRI, 64-slice CT scanner, PACS, nuclear imaging, digital mammography and other radiological and laboratory services. Other services include cardiopulmonary, certified sleep disorder center, regional dialysis unit, pharmacy, rehab, audiology, a 12/7 hospitalist program, home care and hospice, and a 60-bed senior living community.

UP Health System – Portage is home to the first Level III ASC-verified trauma center and emergency department in the state, as well as an Express Care walk-in clinic.
