She chose to become a family nurse practitioner to continue to care for a variety of demographics of patients in a different setting. She has always loved the variety and unpredictability of nursing which family practice health care is able to provide. She also enjoys building the long-term relationships with her patients that had not been available in her previous roles.
Hannah grew up on a family farm south of Waukon. She cares for patients in both the Waukon and Postville Clinics and is particularly interested in women’s health and pediatrics.

Dr. Kristina Thompson
Podiatrist Dr. Kristina Thompson, originally of Monona, is available every Monday and Wednesday in Waukon consulting and treating patients and even providing minor surgical procedures. She is also a wound care specialist and diabetes educator. She chose to specialize in foot health because she developed an interest in the treatment of diabetes and wanted to help prevent diabetes related complications. From there, she zoned in on clinical podiatry with an emphasis in wound care of the lower extremity.
