Most recently, Dr. Kohlman-Petrick worked as an Interventional Cardiologist at Sanford Health in Fargo and maintained visiting physician hours at Lake Region Healthcare. “We are pleased to expand our service to offer patients a full time cardiologist right here in Fergus Falls,” said Larry Schulz, CEO. “It is a recurring request from our community to offer more cardiology services here and the need has been confirmed by our Medical Staff Development Plan.  We are happy Dr. Kohlman-Petrick has come on board full time to fill this need,” he added.

In her spare time, Dr. Kohlman-Petrick is an avid runner/triathlete and a volunteer with Girls on the Run.
