Kari Mongeon-Wahlen, APRN, CNS

I would describe myself as a very warm person who likes to get to know my patients from a more holistic perspective as I feel it helps me provide comprehensive and individualized care.

I view being a healthcare provider as a privilege. I approach each patient as an individual and believe working with them as a team is one of the best ways to participate in meeting their health and wellness goals.

My personal interests include all things Minnesota sports, singing and playing piano and guitar, musicals, movies and spending time at the pool watching two of my children swim competitively.
