Welcome

From our entire staff, welcome to North Memorial Clinic - Brooklyn Park Family Physicians. We make it a point to get to know each of our patients personally. We take pride in knowing you by name, and we try to spend extra time with you whenever we can.

During the years we've been privileged to serve the Brooklyn Park community, we've seen your lives become busier and more complex. So we have made every effort to offer complete medical care for you, and to do so at times that are convenient for you. That's why you will see us open late three evenings per week and on Saturday mornings. It's also why we've installed an electronic medical record system, a tool that helps us customize a preventive care schedule for you. With this system, we can help remind you when it's time for your physical or your child 's next immunization. These are just a few ways we've changed how we approach caring for you as your life has changed.
