Teaching, Learning, Referring

>> Medical Student Teaching

At Krohn Clinic, we have a long legacy of helping train learners from all fields including medical students, physician assistant students and medical assistant students. We help learners cultivate a love for the full scope of rural medical care. Learners enjoy working with our physicians and the many visiting specialists to gain skills and knowledge, as well as appreciation for the breadth of care provided at Krohn Clinic.

>> Our Board Certified Physicians

Medical specialty certification in the United States is a voluntary process. While medical licensure sets the minimum competency requirements to diagnose and treat patients, it is not specialty specific. Board certification demonstrates a physician's exceptional expertise in a particular specialty and/or subspecialty of medical practice. Certification by an ABMS Member Board involves a rigorous process of testing and peer evaluation that is designed and administered by specialists in the specific area of medicine.

All of our physicians are Board Certified. That means he or she is dedicated to providing exceptional patient care through a rigorous, voluntary commitment to lifelong learning through board certification. In addition to completing years of schooling, fulfilling residency requirements and passing the exams required to practice medicine in our state, your Board Certified specialist participates in an ongoing process of continuing education. This is to keep current with the latest advances in medical science and technology in his or her specialty as well as best practices in patient safety, quality health care and creating a responsive patient-focused environment.

>> Specialty Services

We want to partner with you in your healthcare. Because of the rigorous standards we set for all of our doctors and staff, and the extra training we have pursued to bring many of the specialty procedures to our local community, most of your care can be received at Krohn Clinic or Black River Memorial Hospital. On those occasions where you and your provider decide that another doctor’s opinion, expertise, or their ability to perform a procedure is needed, we are happy to facilitate a consult. We have many outside visiting specialists that can see you here at our clinic, or we can arrange an appointment out of town if necessary.
