AdhesiveCapsulitisShoulder near Amery, WI

Care Philosophy: I joined HealthPartners in 2012 following a sports medicine fellowship at Wake Forest University and an orthopedic residency at the University of Minnesota. My special interests include shoulder, knee, and hip arthroscopy. I enjoy basketball and was the Slam Dunk Champion at Princeton University in 2000 while an undergraduate. I live in St. Paul with my wife and seven children.

Biography: I chose to become a doctor and specialize in internal medicine because I enjoy the investigative nature of the specialty and figuring out the best ways to help my patients. I also appreciate the opportunity it provides to develop long-term relationships with my patients. I enjoy seeing people from many different cultures and helping them navigate the health system. My ability to speak Spanish is a comfort to many of my patients who appreciate being able to communicate in their native language. I have special interests in travel medicine and caring for those with diabetes.

Care Philosophy: Dr. Struyk sees her role in medicine as an educator helping patients understand their health better so they can partner with her to improve it. She enjoys seeing families and taking care of babies, children, adolescents and adults.

Care Philosophy: I am a transplant to Minnesota, myself being from Iowa and my wife being from Wisconsin (go Cyclones and Badgers!). My wife and I love spending time outdoors, specifically cross country skiing and ice fishing. I am a fan of all sports, though baseball is my true love having had the opportunity to play in college. I am a proud owner of a French bulldog.
