Dr. Tyler Aasen joined The Iowa Clinic in 2020 to be part of an organization that takes pride in providing high-quality patient care and where physicians can be involved in leadership to make patient-centered decisions and policies. He chose gastroenterology because it enables him to develop long term patient relationships while also allowing for more immediate and direct patient impact through procedural interventions. A physician specializing in GI cares for patients at some of their most vulnerable and difficult times. The most rewarding part of his job is seeing his patients recover and get back to normal life.

Paula Jirak, PTA has been with The Iowa Clinic since 2004. The outpatient setting and opportunity to work with multiple specialties in one building are what appealed to her about The Iowa Clinic. Paula's interest in physical therapy came about from seeing the impact it can make in people's lives, which is what drove her to become a physical therapist herself. She has seen patients become more independent, avoid nursing facilities, return to work with no discomfort, and athletes return to their sporting activities after injury. There is nothing more rewarding than receiving a spontaneous hug from a patient, letting her know what a positive difference she has made in their lives.
