PERSONAL LIFE
What would people be surprised to find out about you?
People who get to know me quickly realize that I’m just a kid at heart. Embracing that part of myself has been a game-changer in my personal and work life. Staying curious and open-minded allows me to see all of life’s possibilities, keeping me open to learning, embracing change, and finding joy in creating new things—especially when I step outside the lines.
I also find happiness in simple moments, like ice cream on a sunny day or laughing at something silly. That lightheartedness helps me stay resilient, take things less personally, and face stress with more hope and optimism. But most importantly, I’ve learned to have faith without hesitation. A childlike heart, full of love, innocence, and humility, reminds me to trust fully and believe deeply. That simple, pure-hearted faith shapes how I live, love, and lead.
What is your life purpose? Do you have a personal mission statement for this phase of your life?
In this remarkable chapter of my life. I’m trying more than ever to live with an open and humble spirit. It’s a joy spending time with my family, especially my grandchildren, and relating to them through understanding with a playful heart. I try to be a steady, loving presence for my wife and a source of encouragement for our five grown children as they now walk their paths. Rooted in gratitude and grace, I aim to live each day with purpose—offering kindness, forgiveness, and compassion—and to walk humbly with God as I prepare my heart for His kingdom.
What drives you?
What drives me is the desire to leave a legacy of love. I strive to plant seeds of faith and kindness to those around me daily. I want my words and actions to reflect the love and lessons I’ve gathered over a lifetime. At the core of it all is my walk with Christ, who remains my constant guide. My relationship with Him is the foundation upon which I build my life, and I seek His wisdom through prayer and reflection, trusting Him to shape my heart continually. I deeply cherish the spiritual gifts I’ve been given to try and offer encouragement to others without judgment and be present whenever they need me. In my work, I strive daily to serve my patients and my team with honesty, empathy, and respect.
Do you have morning rituals or daily habits that enhance your life?
To live on purpose, I try to start each morning with a short quiet time and worship music to focus my heart on what truly matters.
At Multicare, I aim to lead by example—listening well, making sound decisions, and offering kindness whenever possible. In the evenings, I reflect on where I lived out my purpose and where I can grow, always striving to learn and become better, both personally and professionally.
These simple daily practices keep me grounded in gratitude, focused on what matters, and centered in faith as I embrace this meaningful season of life.
How do you decompress or unwind?
At the end of the day, I find renewal in being anywhere outdoors—whether it’s walking, working in the yard, or just sitting in a boat. Time in nature helps me slow down, breathe, and gain perspective. I also cherish quiet moments with my wife, whether sharing a meal, traveling, or simply talking about our day. Time with my grandchildren always brings lighthearted joy, reminding me not to take life too seriously when I’m acting like a goofball to hopefully get a laugh.
When I need to clear my mind, I turn to projects around the house, a good TV series, or physical activity, which helps me release the stress of the day.
Who was/is your mentor?
When I think about who I look up to, it’s my father. Though he passed away 13 years ago, his example and words still guide me. He often reminded me it’s never too late to become the man you want to be. He was a tall man who lived larger than life yet carried himself with quiet strength, deep humility, and unwavering faith.
One of his greatest lessons was to give everyone grace. He often said, “Everyone is going through something. ” He lived that out, meeting people with patience and compassion, even when it wasn’t easy. He believed true confidence comes from Christ alone—not from others’ opinions or your achievements. I often return to his words: “You’ll never be free and truly happy until you stop wishing for more money, love, security, or praise.”
I look up to my father because he didn’t just speak these truths—he lived them with conviction. His life reflected the true meaning of joy he understood so well, and I can only hope to honor him by doing the same at work and home.
WORK LIFE
Tell us about your business.
Multicare Health Clinic is located in Sioux City and is truly a healthcare one-stop-shop as the most advanced and comprehensive office for chiropractic, medical, physical therapy, and massage services. Working out of our 10,000-square-foot office, Multicare specializes in alleviating pain, numbness, headaches, and stiffness in any area of the body. Working as a team like this provides us with the most efficient treatments for such things as sprains, strains, disc problems, arthritis, knee degeneration, hip bursitis, sciatica, carpal tunnel, sports injuries, and postural restoration for all ages.
What’s the meaning behind the business name?
As Sioux City’s only clinic of its kind, the name behind Multicare Health Clinic simply means that we can provide multiple types of care for multiple types of health problems. If someone is unsure what type of care would be the best to treat their condition, based on the tens of thousands of different patients we have previously helped in the last 25 years, Multicare can suggest the right care by the right provider at the right time. After their first evaluation, this decision can be made, which routes everyone to the most efficient, long-lasting, and cost-effective care possible.
What sets your business apart from the rest?
Above and beyond Multicare offering every type of care possible, we pride ourselves on our treatment philosophy and how our practitioners approach the care they offer.
Where other clinics can be reactive, Multicare is truly proactive. We are not just chasing symptoms and waiting for something to happen; we are focused on finding the root cause of someone’s problems and preventing them in the future.
Where other clinics provide most treatments with side effects that are degenerative, Multicare offers treatments that are regenerative in nature. We have stopped using such things as Cortisone, which is destructive to bone density and soft tissue integrity. We have turned instead to Regenerative Medicine, which allows your body’s endeavor to regenerate and heal itself.
All of this cannot be done by looking at the body as though it is just many pieces working independently from one another. It can only be accomplished by looking at the body as a whole; with integrated systems working intricately together.
You can’t accomplish any of this without skilled providers with many tools and access to the latest techniques and state-of-the-art technology. That’s why, in addition to traditional services, the providers of Multicare offer Regenerative Therapy, Dry Needling, Cupping, and proprietary FDA-cleared technology. For years, we have been equipped with treatment options such as Regenerative Medicine Injections, Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF), Red & Infrared Light Therapy, Class IV Laser Therapy, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, IV Therapy, Compression Therapy, Radial Pulse Wave, and the infamous SoftWaveTRT (Tissue Regenerative Technologies).
By combining SoftWave, which has an actual patent for Neural Elongation (Nerve Regeneration), with all the other technology, techniques, and Multicare’s professionals, we are having tremendous success managing peripheral Neuropathy symptomatology.
What are you most proud of?
All the different types of practitioners at Multicare believe that patients don’t truly benefit from healthcare until all providers have put their differences aside and worked together in the patient’s best interest.
As the first clinic like this in Iowa and the only clinic like it in Sioux City, we at Multicare are proud to offer this one-of-a-kind type of care. Seeing the significant benefits of everyone working together to achieve faster and better patient outcomes, we hope that this model of healthcare will become the rule rather than the exception in the future.
In recognizing this value that Multicare offers, many Siouxland businesses put their reliance upon our care for their injured employees. For more than 20 years, even the Sioux City Explorers have put their trust in Multicare by selecting us as their treating providers for their professional athletes. Due to our diagnostic capabilities, Sioux City Fire and Rescue has also selected Multicare to perform their annual Physical Fitness Assessments for their brave individuals in uniform.
In recognition of fostering this synergistic relationship, Multicare has received a coveted Service Award for Patient-Centered Care nationally and locally, they have received the Spirit of Siouxland Award and a well-deserved Siouxland Choice Award.
Let’s talk customer service…what’s the client experience?
Multicare is about the most comprehensive but laid-back clinic you are ever going to find. The front desk always greets you with a smile. Patients can expect providers that are the best in their field, easy to converse with, and always encourage you to ask questions. Patients are granted the opportunity of a free consultation to determine if Multicare might be able to help and which type of provider would be the best for them or if a referral is necessary. Most patients are released from their active care within a month. During this time, Multicare provides a confident understanding of what you may need to be doing at home to help ensure your condition never returns.
How do you approach obstacles or setbacks?
The providers of Multicare have always vowed to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to providing the latest and greatest healthcare options. The providers are intentionally never satisfied with the care that they have offered. They are constantly searching for ways in which we could have provided better outcomes with even more cost-effective treatments. It’s frustrating at times waiting for the United States regulatory agencies and insurance companies for reimbursement to catch up with the amazing success that other countries are having with these technologies and procedures that we can offer. To combat this, and viewing this as an opportunity, we are constantly trying to educate patients and insurance payors about the amazing, long-lasting success available for our patients at an extremely affordable cost.
