Angela is a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, seeing patients in both our Waukon and Postville Clinics.  She has 25 years of nursing experience from the Regional Medical Center in Manchester where she worked in a variety of nursing roles.  She chose to become a PMHNP to provide a positive impact and improve the quality of life for individuals and the community.

Angela’s years of nursing taught her how mental well-being affects multiple aspects of one’s life, including physical health, and strives to meet the needs of her patients to improve their quality of life.

Mason Kerian

Mason is a graduate of Waukon High School and attended the University of Iowa for eight years as she worked on earning her nurse practitioner doctorate.  She became a nurse practitioner because she saw how poor health outcomes often results from something as simple as miscommunication, a lack of trust or a missed connection between providers and their patients.

She focuses on helping her patients enjoy their lives, whether that’s infants and children, young families in the busy seasons of life, or older adults who want to stay independent and active, and welcomes all walks of life.  She cares for patients in both the Waukon and Postville Clinics.
