Perhaps it was fate that brought Raquel Ristau, PA-C, to Gundersen Waukon Clinic.
“I grew up in a small town, Cresco, and have a built-in gravitation to rural medicine,” says Ristau, Gundersen Waukon’s newest provider. “I had the opportunity to rotate through Gundersen in Waukon while I was still completing my education and just fell in love with the atmosphere, the people, and the experiences I had as a provider. The growth and opportunity I foresee myself achieving at Gundersen is far greater than any other place I had the opportunity to visit. I’m ready to enhance and enrich the lives of all the patients whom I have the opportunity to treat in the future.”
At Gundersen Waukon, Ristau will care for patients of all ages and health levels, from acute to chronic illnesses to preventative care, such as routine checkups, health risk assessments, immunizations, screenings, personal counseling and more.
