Tara Krosch, M.D.

My goal is to provide the high-end surgical care anticipated from Mayo Clinic, conveniently situated closer to your home, on a quicker timeframe that a smaller institution allows. My passion is cancer care, both breast and colon/GI, as well as robotic surgery related to hernias, gallbladders and colon pathology. Additionally, I always look forward to the opportunity to take care of our pediatric population, since this was a large focus in my training and research, and a complete joy in my practice.

I'm a native of Mankato, and I returned to my hometown with a goal of bringing the absolute best surgical care and expertise to our region. I absolutely love the small town connections that this brings me each and every day. I'm also the wife of a local farmer — a much harder job — with four amazing children. We are avid outdoor enthusiasts and love all the activities this Minnesota life provides us.
