More about Aaron
Aaron became a Physical Therapist to blend his love of sports and interest in the human body with his genuine desire to help people improve their health. He moved to the Duluth area with his wife in 2020 for grad school and quickly fell in love with the Twin Ports region. He was drawn to serve the Cloquet community through a rural healthcare system, which enables him to provide higher-level care and spend meaningful time with his patients. Outside of work, he is an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys hiking, camping, fishing, and canoeing. He also loves traveling, trying new foods, and exploring different cultures.
