Dr. Bernhard was raised in Bowman, North Dakota. After graduating from Augustana College in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, she completed medical school and residency training at Creighton University School of Medicine in Omaha, Nebraska. Dr. Bernhard and her husband and have always loved the Black Hills and were excited to move to Rapid City when she finished her training. She has been practicing OB/GYN in Rapid City since 2005 and began practice at Rapid City Medical Center in 2019.
Dr. Bernhard enjoys all aspects of OB/GYN including minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, low and high-risk obstetrics, infertility, well woman care and adolescent gynecology. She feels fortunate that she is able to cultivate long term relationships with her patients and there is nothing more exciting to her than welcoming a newborn baby. No matter how many babies she delivers, each one is still magical!
When she is not working, she enjoys hiking and kayaking with her family, curling up with a good book, and exploring National Parks.
