Minnesota Monthly has released its Top Doctors list – an annual recognition of the physicians who were most frequently named by fellow colleagues for their outstanding care and expertise. North Memorial Health is proud to have five of our doctors included, representing both the hospital and clinic setting – a testament to the excellence across our organization.
“Being recognized as a Minnesota Monthly Top Doctor is a meaningful honor and a reflection of the exceptional care our physicians provide every day,” said Dr. Carolyn Ogland, President and Chief Medical Officer at North Memorial Health. “We are especially proud to celebrate Dr. Mark Solfelt and Dr. Joseph Van Camp who earned the Legacy of Excellence in Healthcare distinction, awarded to physicians who have been named Top Doctors for eight or more years. This achievement reflects a lasting commitment to clinical excellence, innovation, and patient-centered care. We are incredibly proud of all our physicians and grateful for the lasting difference they make in the lives of the communities we serve.”

North Memorial Health’s 2026 Top Doctors
Mark L. Solfelt, MD
Thoracic Surgery
Dr. Mark Solfelt is a thoracic surgeon committed to providing the highest quality surgical care using innovation, skill and compassion. He strives to spend as much time as it takes to help patients and their families feel well-cared for and well-informed. His practice focuses solely on non-cardiac surgery including all aspects of lung surgery as well as diseases of the pleural space and chest.
By using minimally invasive surgery like robotic-assisted lung surgery, Dr. Solfelt has been instrumental in establishing North Memorial Health as a leading program in Minnesota. These innovations have allowed our patients to recover faster with minimal disability. He also helped to create a coordinated, team approach among all the specialists to bring efficiency and improved results to his patients.

Cardiothoracic Surgery
Dr. Joseph Van Camp approaches patients as individuals and tries to listen to their concerns and how a disease affects their lives. He makes recommendations for a care plan and then together decides on the best way to proceed for each individual.
