Angela Fjerstad, PA

Philosophy of Care: My approach to medicine is very direct. I try to explain things in a clear and concise manner to my patients and often use analogies to make my explanations more clear. I welcome questions from patients as I firmly believe that if I cannot answer a question, I should find the answer. I also believe I should be fully able to explain the rationale behind any testing or treatments I order. I also strongly dislike running late in clinic, I believe the patient’s time is just as valuable as my own and make every effort to keep my clinic moving without sacrificing patient education.

What do you like best about working at OMC? I love the close community at OMC. I feel like I am truly part of a team here. Everyone strives to help each other and provide the best care for patients possible.

Personal Interests: I love spending time with my husband and our two dogs. I also love gardening—in fact, we moved to St. Croix Falls so that we could have more land for gardening!

Fun Fact: I am active in Brazilian jiu jitsu and teach a kids class in Eagan, MN.
