- Why Hettinger: I hail from the charming town of Oslo, Minnesota, where I developed a strong sense of community and a passion for medicine early on. After completing my undergraduate studies, I pursued my medical education at St. George's University School of Medicine, where I honed my clinical skills and deepened my commitment to serving patients.I chose the UND Center for Family Medicine Bismarck/Hettinger program for my residency primarily due to its exceptional rural medicine track. I believe that providing healthcare in rural areas is crucial, and this program’s focus on equipping residents with the necessary skills to meet the unique challenges of rural practice aligns perfectly with his career aspirations.In addition to its strong curriculum, I was drawn to the Bismarck/Hettinger area for its family-friendly environment, low crime rate, and affordable cost of living. I appreciate the opportunity to build a fulfilling personal and professional life in a safe, welcoming community. I looks forward to contributing to the health and well-being of families in the region while continuing to grow as a compassionate and skilled physician.

- Why Hettinger: My wife and I are looking for a place to set roots, and Bismarck is a beautiful city to settle down in. It combines some of the luxuries of bigger cities while not feeling oppressive and gives you a great taste of the Midwestern charm. Emily and I come from small towns in South Dakota and we are excited to move back from the coasts to the Midwest.
