Sanford Health is growing its reach in western South Dakota with the acquisition of Black Hills Plastic Surgery.

The practice provides cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, as well as nonsurgical cosmetic treatments.

The partnership is expected to be finalized by the end of the year.

Black Hills Plastic Surgery’s team includes two board-certified physicians, one advanced practice provider and six employees. It is anticipated that all staff members will be joining Sanford Health, according to a news release from Sanford.

The practice will continue to be located at 3615 Fifth St. in south Rapid City.

“We are excited to welcome the talented team at Black Hills Plastic Surgery to the Sanford Health family,” said Kyle Wiese, president and CEO of Sanford Black Hills. “This partnership reinforces Sanford Health’s ongoing commitment to expanding comprehensive, world-class health care services tailored to meet the needs of patients across the Black Hills region.”

Black Hills Plastic Surgery will be the latest independent physician group in western South Dakota to join Sanford Health following the completion of its combination with Creekside Medical Clinic in August.

In November 2024, Black Hills Orthopedic and Spine Center, Black Hills Surgical Hospital, Black Hills Urgent Care and Black Hills Surgery Center of Wyoming became part of Sanford Health.
