The North Dakota Medical Association has presented Kimberly Krohn, MD, a Family Medicine specialist with Trinity Health, its Physician Community and Professional Services Award for 2017. The award is presented annually to a physician who demonstrates “outstanding leadership and services to the people of North Dakota and to the profession of medicine.”

Krohn was praised for her exemplary service to primary care medicine. “She served with distinction as Program Director of the UND School of Medicine and Health Sciences Center for Family Medicine of Minot’s Residency Program,” the NDMA stated. “In addition, Dr. Krohn served as the North Dakota Medical Association president and held presidential leadership roles with the N.D. Academy of Family Physicians Foundation, the Minot Noon Rotary Club, and the N.D. Society of OB/GYN. Dr. Krohn is known to be a modest and compassionate physician who is a role model for every medical practitioner.”

Krohn joined Trinity’s medical staff last year in continuation of a 20-year career in comprehensive Family Medicine. In 2014 she was named North Dakota Family Physician of the Year.
