To Kristen, taking care of patients means providing whole-person healthcare and using shared decision making that involves the patient in their own health. For Kristen, it’s not simply about “what’s the matter with you” but also, “what matters TO you.” She wants to help patients live their best, healthiest lives, while also getting to know them personally – learning about their hobbies, their children and grandchildren, and what brings them joy. 

Born and raised in Butte, Montana, Kristen has lived in Great Falls for nearly 10 years. She loves that it is centrally located, making it easy to access all corners of our beautiful state.

Away from the clinic, Kristen is an avid reader, often reading more than 100 books each year. She also enjoys scrapbooking, journaling, and photography.
