A 2001 graduate from St. Matthew’s University, Dr. John Bas first learned about the application of medicine while caring for a family member. He pursued additional clerkships in Family Medicine while completing his MHSA at St. Joseph’s College. Soon after his ECFMG certification, he began his residency training at the Brown University Family Medicine Program.

In his intern year, he was commissioned as a Captain in the United States Army Medical Corps. After residency, he started his own private practice and soon married his wife Amy. Most recently, Dr. Bas completed his Officer’s Leadership Course and was appointed Company Commander of over 200 officers in the Army Healthcare field.

Although Dr. Bas admits the road he chose was one less traveled, he is looking forward to the challenges and remains thankful for where he is today.
