Hope Dexter, D.N.P.

My approach is based on the old adage "treat others as you'd like to be treated." I aim to be approachable so people feel comfortable coming to me with their health concerns. I do my best to ensure patients understand their diagnosis and are given a chance to participate in making their plan of care. I work to help patients to understand their options so we make the best choice for their unique situation.

I grew up near Rice Lake and have spent much of my life in this area. I spend most of my spare time with my husband and kids fishing, hiking, swimming, traveling and attending the kids' sporting events.
