Joshua Luft, M. D.

Hometown: Munich, Germany

Medical School: Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a:

Archaeologist. I wanted to explore the pyramids in Egypt and solve ancient mysteries. Over time, I developed a passion for solving medical mysteries.

On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me:

Looking for a nice café to have coffee and cake

If I weren’t a doctor, I would be a:

I would become a professional violinist! Playing violin is my second greatest passion after medicine.

Favorite show to binge watch:

Dexter, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, documentaries about history and nature

Fun Fact:

Growing up in Munich, Germany, the beer capital of the world, you’d expect me to be a big beer enthusiast and own multiple pairs of Lederhosen. In reality, I’m not much of a beer drinker, and I save my single pair of Lederhosen for special occasions.

The next thing I want to check off my bucket list:

Exploring the natural beauty of Arkansas! Visiting Bora Bora.

Most people don’t know:

I love playing the violin. I’m also an avid skier and recently discovered fishing as one of my favorite activities.
