Dr. Mason was born and raised in the Chippewa Valley.  She is a graduate of McDonell High School, the University of St. Thomas, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health.  She completed her residency at Regions Hospital in St. Paul in 2007 and returned home to practice medicine.  She is a board-certified Emergency Medicine physician with advanced training in wound care and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.  With the unprecedented closure of HSHS hospitals in Western Wisconsin, Dr. Mason decided to open a mobile wound care service in order to help bridge the health care gap facing the region.  Dr. Mason is passionate about providing quality medical care throughout the Chippewa Valley.
