Welcome, Tyson!
Tyson graduated from the University of Arizona with an Undergraduate, Master’s, and Doctorate Degree in Physiological Sciences.
As a doctoral candidate, Tyson also studied neuroscience. At the conclusion of a four-year postdoctoral position studying inherited eye diseases, he changed careers so he could work with patients. He graduated from the University of Iowa Physician Assistant program in the summer of 2013.
Tyson’s approach to patient care is based on kindness, integrity, compassion, dignity, and respect – as he would treat any member of his family. Though trained in primary care, his other subspecialty of medicine is urology, specializing in men’s health. In addition, Tyson comes from a family with many veterans over many generations and has a special place in his heart when caring for Veterans. “I am honored to be serving the community of Dubois, and I am eager to get to work.”
Tyson is married to his wonderful wife, Traci, and they have three children – Nile, Samantha, and Tristan. Aside from church, Tyson spends time with his family bicycling, hiking, walking, fishing, playing tennis, basketball, soccer, and visiting grandma and grandpa. Tyson is an avid outdoorsman and enjoys hiking (especially backpacking), fishing, and snowshoeing.
