His story
Why he does what he does
Dr. McDonald grew up in Cadillac, Michigan, surrounded by teachers and coaches, and developed a lifelong appreciation for movement and athletics. He played basketball at Albion College before working as a personal trainer and assistant basketball coach prior to medical school.
As a survivor of stage 4 melanoma, Dr. McDonald understands firsthand how profoundly health challenges can change a person’s life. That experience shaped his perspective on patient care, and inspired the meaning behind Resilience.
