Ryan Bjerke, MD

As a family medicine provider, I am committed to building strong, collaborative relationships with my patients to support healthier and more fulfilling lives. I believe in meeting people where they are, understanding their goals, and working together to improve both short-term concerns and long-term wellness. Whether I am helping manage a chronic condition or focusing on preventive care, I take pride in offering thoughtful and personalized support at every stage of life.

My Approach to Care

My goal is to help people live healthier and longer lives by building trust and working together toward shared health goals. I believe in the importance of preventive care and live by the saying, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Outside the Office

When I am not seeing patients, I enjoy spending time with my puppy, playing video games, and watching sports. Taking walks, staying active, and unwinding with personal interests helps me recharge and stay balanced outside of work.

Fun Facts

• My go-to karaoke song is “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Rick Astley.
• I could eat fettuccine Alfredo every day without getting tired of it.
• My favorite Minnesota hotdish is tater tot hotdish.

Health Tips

• One health tip I swear by is aiming for eight to nine hours of sleep each night when possible.
• I also believe in the power of showing up. Just getting to the gym is often the hardest part, and once you take that first step, you are already halfway there.
• On busy days, I turn to simple self-care strategies like deep breathing, weight lifting, and walking my dog.
