Mayo Clinic Health System – Franciscan Healthcare announces the hiring of a new provider for the Waukon clinic. Board-certified nurse practitioner Linda Fuller will join the Family Medicine team, which includes Steven Perkins, D.O.; nurse practitioners Linda Fuller, Elizabeth Leschensky and Michelle Mertens-Dodgen; and certified physician assistant Sara Winters.

“I’ve enjoyed living in Rochester while working for Mayo Clinic for the past 12 years, but I’m even more excited to join the team in Waukon,” says Fuller. “I grew up on a small family farm in southern Illinois, and immediately felt at home in Waukon surrounded by fields and friendly people. I can’t wait to join the stellar team at the clinic, and provide care to - and develop relationships with - the good people of Waukon and the surrounding communities.”

Fuller earned her doctorate of nursing practice from the University of Minnesota and completed the Mayo Clinic Nurse Practitioner Residency Program in Rochester. Fuller is a member of, and certified by, the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. Prior to joining Franciscan Healthcare, Fuller was a triage nurse in Employee and Community Health at Mayo Clinic in Rochester.
