David Fiore
Dr. Fiore has twenty-five years of academic experience balancing patient
care, teaching and leadership. Professional philosophy encompasses life-long
learning, self-improvement and continuing education, with a desire to
encourage these traits in colleagues and learners evidenced by the following
accomplishments. Dr. Fiore grew up in upstate New York and attended college
and medical school at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. After
an internship in New York City he took a three year break from training
where he worked in as an emergency department physician in upstate New
York and then travelled and volunteered in Asia for almost a year, before
returning to training in Family Medicine in Redding California. This led
him to come to Reno to join the Department of Family Medicine at UNR and
join the medical staff at Saint Mary’s and (then) Washoe Medical
Center. Practicing, and teaching, in the outpatient and inpatient realms
has been a source of joy for Dr. Fiore. He has particularly enjoyed the
relationship between the UNR Department of Family Medicine and Saint Mary’s
and is strongly motivated to build and nurture that relationship.
