Congratulations to Cheryl Lyngen on her retirement! Cheryl has been employed as a nurse in the Avera Splitrock Medical Center since August of 1993, and saw many changes throughout the past 27 years, as it went from Dr. Marvin Wingert’s solo practice to an Avera satellite clinic.

Cheryl has been a constant throughout those changes, providing a familiar face to many patients.

“I learned a lot from Dr. Marvin and his daughter, Mary (DeWitte, who was employed as an LPN in Dr. Wingert’s practice),” she said, remembering her time there fondly.

She is grateful for the patients who stopped by on her last day, and plans to spend her time with her grandchildren.

She also notes that, while doctors and providers at the clinic have changed, her long-term colleague Cherie Stoterau is still there, continuing to provide the same great care that the Garretson clinic has always been known for.
