Erin Tracy Joined WHC in 2014 “What I’ve learned from my patients: Personal choices are just that–they are as unique as you are. We all need someone to actively listen to us when we are struggling. I will listen without judgment. My practice philosophy: Most patients come seeking answers; I can share with you my medical knowledge and clinical experience to help you find them. When science alone doesn’t have an answer, we can sort through the uncertainty together. My strengths are the way I explain things and my down to earth sense of humor. In my free time you’ll find me outdoors, usually near the water, with my husband and 3 kids.

Both of my beloved grandmothers had cancer and I had a back injury that required surgery and a year in a back brace. Seeing the impact that doctors can have - both positive and negative - had a profound effect on me. It is important to me to understand the whole person in order to help best optimize their health and well-being. I was born in Minnesota and my family has deep roots here. I moved away for about 15 years after high school, but after our first child was born, my husband and I knew we wanted to raise her here. I have a deep love for our state and all its people. I’m passionate about the great outdoors and enjoy our family tradition of camping in the Boundary Waters at least once a year.

I believe finding the balance between professional trust, personal touch and an occasional bit of humor for each unique woman is what leads to the most rewarding connections with patients.

I enjoy the relationships I’ve established with patients of all ages and stages of life as we’ve collaborated on health issues of many kinds - from general reproductive health, to pregnancy, to the challenges of aging, and a hundred things in-between. With each new patient, I prefer to start by listening and then co-creating a care plan to meet the specific needs of each individual.

I believe that all of our patients deserve to be heard and to receive our very best care. I have learned that one of the most important things that I can do for my patients is to listen and be curious. I believe that outstanding care looks like taking time, listening and seeking to understand my patients’ concerns, and then working to make the best decisions together. Women know themselves and usually have a good idea about what they want and need. I don’t believe that it’s my job to tell other people what is best for them, but to help them decide. My priority is to learn the medical evidence and to strive to be as knowledgeable as possible. Then, my responsibility is to share that information with my patients and help them to decide what they need, by listening, encouraging, and answering questions. One of my favorite aspects of medicine is that I am constantly learning. Within a field that is perpetually evolving, I learn something new every day, whether it’s new research, a new skill, or a new way to approach a situation. I have learned so much from my patients, and I continue to learn from my wise coworkers and colleagues. I am so grateful for the work that we are privileged to do together. I grew up in a suburb of Chicago and pursued an undergrad degree in Minnesota. I met my husband in college, and we later married while I was in medical school in Georgia. I trained in Arizona, and we returned to Minnesota in 2010. After working in the northern suburbs, I joined Women’s Health Consultants in 2015. We have two beautiful boys, and my family is nearby. We enjoy traveling, spending time together at the cabin, watching and playing sports, and reading.” https://www.womenshealthconsultantsmn.com/karen-hessel daily 0.75 2022-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613cee5a77e08c570a429e45/1632512001068-84P3DNBQ68LIX2U3NCPY/Hessel%2C+Karen.jpg Karen Hessel - Karen Hessel Joined WHC in 2017 https://www.womenshealthconsultantsmn.com/roxie-bozicevich daily 0.75 2025-09-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613cee5a77e08c570a429e45/1632511558375-L0MG0QWBKF9KG7WYI41P/Bozicevich%2C+Roxie.jpg https://www.womenshealthconsultantsmn.com/madeline-hellendag daily 0.75 2022-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613cee5a77e08c570a429e45/1632511984219-6QSOVXIK6LPIBPI73XDA/Hellendag%2C+Madeline.jpg Madeline Hellendag - Madeline Hellendag Joined WHC in 2019 “I am honored to be a physician, and I am committed to being a thoughtful communicator and patient advocate.
