As a family medicine provider, my goal is to empower patients to take control of their health and feel confident in their decisions. I believe in educating my patients, engaging in shared decision-making, and respecting each individual’s personal goals and abilities. Whether it’s addressing a specific health concern or providing preventative care, I strive to offer individualized care that takes into account all aspects of a patient’s physical, social, and mental well-being. Building long-lasting relationships based on trust and open communication is at the heart of my approach.
I graduated from St. Catherine University and am board-certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA). I am also licensed by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice. My areas of interest include gastroenterology, geriatrics, and preventative medicine—areas that allow me to work with a diverse group of patients across the lifespan and help them manage their health proactively.
At Entira Family Clinics, I’m fortunate to be part of a dedicated team that works together to provide the best care possible. The most satisfying part of my role is being able to build strong, supportive relationships with my patients and work alongside a team of providers and support staff to ensure we address all of their healthcare needs.
My approach to patient care is holistic. I believe that true health involves balancing the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of a person’s life. While I prioritize lifestyle changes and preventative care, I also know when medications and additional interventions are necessary. I work closely with my care team to ensure follow-up and referrals, providing my patients with the support they need throughout their health journey.
When I’m not at work, I love to stay active—whether it’s skiing, running, fishing, hiking, or playing golf. I also enjoy reading and cooking, and spending time with my husband, family, and our black lab, Graham.
