Dr. Rik has 15 years of experience in continuity primary care in Hastings followed by 2 years of Allina Health Float Physician work in the south east metro. His interest in Aesthetic Medicine prompted formal training through the National Procedure Institute and then working with Refined Skin Medi Spa in Red Wing and Rochester. Aesthetic Medicine appeals to him in how it blends the science of medicine with the art of medicine and can change not just how people look better but feel better, too. It is second nature to him to be attentive to the patient’s needs, consider and offer several options, and create a calm efficient environment.
