Physicians in family medicine get the unique opportunity to help people of all ages who are facing a variety of personal health needs and concerns. The provider may administer immunizations to a school-bound child, care for a mom going into labor, prescribe medication to alleviate pain for a patient nearing end of life — all in one day.
“I enjoy the full spectrum of meeting people’s needs in family medicine,” said Megan Wilkinson, MD. She delivers compassionate and thorough family medicine at Pipestone County Medical Center & Family Clinic Avera in Pipestone, MN.
Expert Care in Family Medicine
Dr. Wilkinson’s comprehensive services include, but are not limited to:
One office-based procedure of interest to Dr. Wilkinson is ultrasound-guided injections. The ultrasound helps her administer therapeutic injections for musculoskeletal pain with pinpoint precision. Surrounding tendons, blood vessels or other structures remain undisturbed.
“It’s amazing to see patients gain relief within moments after the procedure,” said Dr. Wilkinson.
Active Lifestyle
Dr. Wilkinson’s life outside of work is active and fun-filled. She enjoys spending time on the lake with her loved ones, paddle boarding, and going to country music concerts.
