He moved to the Midwest in 1995 to attend Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, graduating in 1999. He completed a dual residency in Family Practice and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine in 2003. He and his wife ran a private practice in Bloomfield, IA until 2016. He then worked in the Fort Madison ED for nearly 10 years.

I was a patient at Van Buren County Hospital for about three days. During my stay I was so impressed by all the staff that attended to me. Each and every one. They were so kind and compassionate. All of the staff did everything to make me at ease and met my needs and concerns. All of the staff went far beyond their duties. Van Buren County Hosptial needs to be so proud of their staff!
