Emily Bukowski, M.D.

As a general otolaryngologist, I am passionate about treating adults and children with concerns across the spectrum of ear, nose and throat (ENT) disorders. “The need of the patient comes first” has always been the Mayo way and I am honored to bring Mayo quality values and ENT surgical experience to the Southwest Minnesota region. I believe in creating a relationship with my patients and empowering them to make the best decision for their health.

I was born and raised in Minnesota and proud to settle in Mankato and raise my family here. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy spending time biking and running, often with my husband, toddler and our dog.
