Member Bio

I am a missionary doctor and have served in medical missions around the globe for over 25 years. My wife and I are both currently seeking a residency (for the 5th year in a row) in any specialty at this point. This may be the last year we have a chance at residency because most programs won't take someone that's graduated more than 5 years ago so please pray with us that God will open a door for us to do a residency so that my wife and I can go full time to the mission field. I am passionate about sharing the Gospel and am fearless to go wherever God will lead us. I most recently returned from Iraq where I rendered medical care on the front line to the peshmerga fighters who were engaging ISIS.
