When I study medicine, I most enjoying learning about: endocrinology because of the interactions with multiple different systems
Things that make me unique are: I have worked in many different fields before deciding to pursue medicine as a career including: farmhand, forklift operator and janitor at a casino!
I’m not only a doctor, I also like to: spend time outdoors hiking, camping and fly-fishing. I also enjoy trying new foods and exploring new places with my family
To get myself motivated I think of: my incredibly supportive family and loving wife
