Same day appointments and walk-ins are always welcome.
We live here, we love it here. The primary benefit of a private medical practice is that you get a higher level of care at a lower cost. We can be far more flexible than corporate medicine, and we don’t have to sacrifice care to edicts of any committee.
It’s really a much better way to provide holistic care to the community we serve.
Last week, athenahealth received the below linked “Notice to Impacted Customers” (“Notice”) from a business associate (Medlytix, Inc.) that had received it from Change Healthcare. The Notice identified Medlytix as a customer whose data was involved in the Change Healthcare security incident initially discovered on February 21, 2024.
The Notice does not explicitly identify impacted patients, so we are sharing its contents with our covered entity clients whose data was processed by Medlytix within the security incident window for completeness and out of an abundance of caution.
Cold, flu, tick bites, urinary tract infections, asthma, eye infections and many other ailments don’t happen when it is convenient for you and that’s why we make it our mission to be here when you need immediate access to health care providers who care invested in your well being.
We treat infants, adults and the elderly.
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.
From Well Child Checks to Medicare Wellness Examinations; sport physical to sports injuries: diabetes and hypothyroidism to cancer screenings, our team at North Star Family Medicine is here to provide outstanding health care for your needs.
We are a private practice, so our physicians focus on patient care, and your health is at the forefront of all our interactions.
As a private practice, we can offer lower costs due to decreased overhead and fees charged by large corporations.
Our physician’s autonomy transcends to the staff and patients, encouraging an atmosphere of trust leading to improved healthcare outcomes.

Pamela Brule2025-02-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm pretty new to this clinic, changing longtime doctor is hard, but Dr. Lelcu made it much less stressful for me than I was anticipating. I was heard and understood and I got in when I wanted to get in. :) Elizabeth2024-09-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After feeling like a number every time I visited my clinic I began my search for a physician that took the time to talk with me regarding my health, I found what I was looking for with Dr Kristy Lelcu at North Star Family Medicine. I have been a patient there for over two years and I could not be more pleased. Prior to finding this clinic I put off going in for physicals etc unless I had no choice. I now feel like I am not just a number. Dr Lelcu and all of her staff are pleasant and responsive to phone calls or messages. I no longer avoid making an appt when needed. I have referred my family and some friends to make an appt. Jenna Hadley Johnsen2024-08-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is an amazing clinic with providers that truly care & help their patients. Not motivated or manged by the system who puts profits over patients. Thank you for everything you do! 💞🙏🏼 A Step Above LLC2024-07-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic experience! Needed urgent care for an ear infection but decided to call Northstar. They got us in right away and worked with our insurance (it's a weird one). The dr even offered a medication to prevent swimmers' ear in the future, since it's something we deal with regularly. I'm thrilled that we decided to go here! 100% would recommend and we will return any time we visit this area. Jamie Norgard2024-06-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently switched to Northstar for our family. Our previous provider left the clinic we were going to. It was so hard, after finding a provider you really trusted and having them leave. I am so happy we found North Star. Dr Kristy and Dr Ashley are amazing. I feel so comfortable and understood by them and have had amazing experiences. All of the staff is very welcoming and pleasant. After previous bad experiences at other local clinics I'm happy to say we have North Star for all of our families needs! ❤️ Chanelle Blaeser2024-06-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So enjoy this clinic. I feel the dr here listens to me and understand my health and my concerns! Ashley Korhonen2024-06-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Always a great experience! Staff is always helpful and friendly.Load more
