Meet Our Staff: Dr. David Wenger-Keller

Dr. David C. Wenger-Keller, MD began practicing medicine at a National Health Service Corps physician-underserved-area site at Ironton, Ohio in 1981. He moved to Ft. Madison, Iowa in 1986, where he has practiced ever since. He is board certified in Family Medicine and is President of the Medical Staff at Ft. Madison Community Hospital.

Dr. Wenger-Keller knew he wanted to practice medicine from a very young age. His mother was a nurse and his father a hospital administrator. As a child he enjoyed reading books about medical history and missionary doctors. "My parents taught me faith without works is dead............and one of the best ways to act on that truth is to help people heal."

Dr. Wenger-Keller attended medical school and completed his residency at the Medical College of Ohio at Toledo. Much of his practice is devoted to the evaluation and treatment of allergies and asthma, including food and bee sting allergy, and fibromyalgia. He is a member of the American College of Asthma, Allergy and Immunology and works with the local hospice organization and emergency medical services.

Dr. Wenger-Keller believes: If you listen to your patients long enough they will tell you what is wrong with them.

Dr. Wenger-Keller, his nurse practitioners and staff want to make sure your health is taken care of and all your needs and concerns are addressed.

His favorite word of encouragement comes from the book of Samuel in the Biblical Old Testament: " and David encouraged and strengthened himself in his God."
