Specializing in:

Sleep Medicine • Pulmonary Medicine • Neurology Disorders • Multiple Sclerosis • Migraines and Alzheimer’s • Preventative Medicine • Managing Hypertension, Diabetes and Obesity

I have worked as a medical professional for the last thirty years, with the first twenty years as a respiratory therapist working in a hospital setting as well as homecare. I finished by PA program at Augsburg College in 2004 and have practiced as a physician assistant specializing in pulmonary medicine and sleep medicine for the majority of my practice. I joined Minneapolis Clinic of Neurology in 2012 and see patients primarily for their sleep concerns. I continue to work in urgent care and as a guest lecturer at College of St. Catherine’s, Physician Assistant Program in St. Paul, MN, as my schedule allows.

The neurologist was amazing! Very compassionate and helped me so much!
PA was excellent as well!

Dr. Aggarwal gave me back my life, PA-C Donald Altenburg has helped me to keep it. Also, your office personnel are consistently welcoming and helpful.

Nice doctor, easy to talk to.
