Duluth City Councilor Arik Forsman on St. Luke's branding launch following its recently-announced merger with Aspirus Health – "My congratulations and appreciation to the team at Aspirus St. Luke’s for completing their affiliation and rollout of their new logo and branding today. This merger strengthens one of our vital regional health systems, promising new investment in the area and preserving thousands of local healthcare jobs in our community. This is good news, especially in an era where rural healthcare systems elsewhere are struggling to keep the doors open. I was happy to voice my support for this affiliation during the official state review process and excited for the future of our healthcare hub in Duluth and beyond. Well done, Aspirus St. Luke’s!"
