Dr. Kristy Lelcu, a Board Certified Family Medicine Physician owns North Star Family Medicine, which opened in 2021. Located in the Brainerd Lakes Area, the focus of North Star Medical is to establish the physician-patient relationship.
We live here, we love it here. The primary benefit of an independent medical practice is that you receive a higher level of care at a lower cost. Our Physician, Mid-Level Providers, Nurses, and receptionists know you personally and respond timely to your concerns. It’s a much better way to provide holistic care to the community we serve.

Cold, flu, tick bites, urinary tract infections, asthma, eye infections and many other ailments.
Walk-ins are welcome.
We provide continuing and comprehensive health care for individuals and families across all ages, genders, diseases and parts of the body.
Our providers strongly believe in making sure that patients are looking at the whole picture of health: Healthy food and good nutrition, staying hydrated, exercise, supplements, and mental health.

I came in as a very unhealthy person who had faced medical obstacles over and over again. Dr. Kristy Lecu has been a blessing. Her thoughtful approach to medicine and her willingness to truly listen have made all the difference. She looks at every concern I bring to her, considers all possible perspectives, and is not afraid to revisit an issue until we figure it out together. Because of her dedication, I finally feel heard, supported, and hopeful about my health. I want to extend my sincere thanks to Dr. Lecu and the entire North Star Family Medicine team for focusing on bringing out a healthier me.”Posted on Riley PowersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It is the best urgent care clinic in the Brainerd lakes area and they have the best staff you could ask for.Posted on KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. i felt Dr Lelcu was fantastic as a survivor of DV and SA, and as a neurodivergent person who forgets things and doesn't understand medical/insurance things. the entire staff was really gentle with me and took a lot of time with me. i didn't read reviews before my appointment and am honestly super surprised about the bad impressions from others. maybe i had a different experience because i scheduled online and put a note to please go easy on me. i would definitely consider their staff to be trauma-informed and knowledgeable and gentle.Posted on c sTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I like the convenience and how i can easily communicate and get in to see the doctor. Dr. Kristy is very direct in her communication and open to listening to the patient. Her nurse is very kind. They respond quickly to messages and inquiries and you can rely on them for timely replies. I prefer direct and cooperative and Dr. Kristy is both. If you like direct communication, being in charge of your own health, and having a doctor who is no nonsense and cooperates with your health goals, then this is your clinic. I know this is definitely mine.Posted on C ClowTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went in for an Urgent Care situation. I got in right away and Dr Katie was amazing. The entire staff is amazing. Everyone was kind and patient and extremely helpful. So thankful to have this level of care in our neck of the woods.Posted on TAMI JAMESTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
