Dr. Adam Armbruster and Dr. Karlyn Armbruster will join the Sleepy Eye Medical Center physician staff in October 2012 after Dr. Karlyn Armbruster completes her residency. The Armbrusters will provide services in family practice, hospital medicine, obstetrics, pediatrics, sports medicine, women's health, and dermatological procedures . 

"We are very excited about the opportunity to return to my hometown of Sleepy Eye and to practice at the Sleepy Eye Medical Center," said Dr. Adam. "Both Karlyn and I agreed that the ideal setting for us would be a small town in Minnesota with a similar clinic setup such as you have here, so when it became a real possibility that we could live and work in Sleepy Eye we jumped at it."   Dr. Adam's parents are Randy and Roxanne Armbruster who together own and operate Randy's Family Drug and Gift.  "My parents were hoping we'd move back and were instrumental in getting us together with the Medical Center. "

"We've always liked Sleepy Eye," said Dr. Karlyn. "We looked at a number of different towns and Sleepy Eye had the stability, solid economy and pride in the community we were looking for. Adam is a graduate of St. Mary's and the opportunity for our children to attend a school like St. Mary's is important to us. Adam always speaks highly of his years at St. Mary's." The Armbusters have a one-year old daughter, Scarlett.

"We are extremely pleased that we are able to attract two talented and accomplished physicians to Sleepy Eye Medical Center," said Kevin Sellheim, CEO and administrator.  "Once we knew they had a serious interest in us it became our number one priority to recruit Dr. Adam and Dr. Karlyn Armbruster.  Not only will they be a great addition to our staff, they will be a valuable asset to our community as well.  Adding both of them to our staff says a lot about our commitment to provide the best possible health care to our community."

Dr. Adam is currently in practice at an outpatient clinic in Wichita, KS that provides medical services to low income and underserved inner city patients. His contract expires in August 2012. Dr. Karlyn will complete her residency in the Via Christi Family Medicine Residency Program in Wichita in July.  The couple met while in medical school and were married in Sleepy Eye in 2009. The family plans to move to Sleepy Eye in August and get settled in during the month of September.
