Family Medicine

Dr. Kristine Martens

Dr. Martens grew up in a single parent household in Billings, Montana. She attended college at Concordia in Moorhead and went on to medical school at Nova Southeastern University in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. She then completed 3 years of Family Medicine specialty training in Rapid City, South Dakota before returning to Fargo in 2013 where she has been practicing full scope Family Medicine ever since.

“I strongly believe in relationships. I want to spend time with my patients and get to know them, so that when there is a health concern I am able to offer advice that isn’t generic, but personalized. I believe that the best outcomes happen when we are working together and on the same page, especially when it comes to your healthcare and potential treatment options. Every person is unique, and there isn’t only one right answer. I also believe that everything is “figure outable” (I am making this a word). I may not have all the answers right away, but if I don’t, I will help you find them.”
