Medical School: Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine
Undergraduate School: Brigham Young University
Hometown: Santa Clarita, California
Hey there everyone, my name is Michael Scott. I was raised in Southern California and claim Santa Clarita, CA as my hometown. I attended BYU, Provo for my undergrad where I met my wife. I graduated in Physiology and Developmental Biology and then attended Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine for medical school. We have had two kids along the way during medical school.
I auditioned at CHRISTUS Spohn Shoreline as a medical student and was amazed at the amount of experience I had in just a few weeks. This included hands on procedures, diversity of pathology, with a high volume emergency department. It became apparent for me that this is where I wanted to end up to receive the best training possible for my needs as a resident and also provide a great environment for my family. Another reason why I was drawn to this program was to use Spanish in a healthcare setting.
I enjoy playing volleyball (we have resident volleyball nights), surfing (yes, there are enough waves here), mountain biking, skiing, rock climbing, hiking, and really any outdoor activity. While here in Corpus Christi, I am wanting to try out windsurfing, kite boarding and the local deep sea fishing.
