Sarah Berg, PA-C - Lead Physician Assistant
I love the outdoors and am fortunately also married to a fellow outdoor enthusiast. I especially enjoy running, hiking, downhill skiing, mountain biking and camping with my husband and three children. We are on a mission to explore each of Minnesota’s 66 state parks and eventually all 63 national parks. I have spent 18 years in family practice and urgent care, providing a broad understanding of the complexities of medicine. It is particularly fulfilling to be part of this distinctly skilled and comprehensive NDBC team that are dedicated to providing exceptional patient centered care and helping people understand and heal from vestibular and balance disorders and concussion.

She prefers to help patients find sustainable ways to feel better and understands the impact vertigo and chronic post-COVID syndromes can have on quality of life.
