Emyleigh Opat, P.A.-C.

My goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident with your treatment and care plan. I want to provide you with the tools necessary to heal and succeed long after you leave the hospital.

I'm originally from Decorah, Iowa. I enjoy traveling, spending time with my family, reading, attending concerts, camping, river floating and most other outdoor activities.
