Notes on alignment with user query: - The page represents Oakdale Obstetrics & Gynecology as part of Premier Women’s Health of Minnesota, not specifically a Willmar (Willmar is a separate city in Minnesota). There is no explicit Willmar location listed among the extractable details. - If the user is specifically seeking MetroPartners OBGYN Clinics or Willmar locations, this page confirms Oakdale OBGYN is under Premier Women’s Health of MN and notes 12 clinic locations in the Twin Cities region, but does not list a Willmar site. For Willmar-specific information or MetroPartners branding, further searches of Premier Women’s Health MN site or Willmar clinics would be advised.
