About

Why I Chose Peoria:
My wife and I moved back to where we were trained as medical students because we knew the quality of medical education at UICOMP. Our extended family is also here so our two daughters can spend time with their cousins. Additionally, the city of Peoria is very easy to live in and allows us to best utilize our time outside of work. We're able to enjoy the river/outdoors, restaurants in the area, rock climbing, board games, friends/family, the convenient airport, and the coffee cafes in the area.
