Dallas grew up in rural Northeastern Oregon. After graduation from OHSU medical school, Dallas came to Klamath Falls for residency at Cascades East Family Medicine before staying on as a faculty member. His professional interests are in quality improvement and healthcare/community partnerships. Outside of work he spends much of his time cooking, preserving and eating the spare produce from Sweet Union Farm. He is passionate about community, environmental justice and health. He loves the conversation that occurs between the provider and the patient during the point-of-care ultrasound as they explore together what is happening beneath the skin – whether something as simple as a lump or bump, or as dynamic as the heart.
