Check out the Q & A session below to learn more about Dr. Gilbert.

I grew up in Seymour, Indiana. I ran cross country and track, played basketball, and was a member of the marching and concert bands at Seymour High School. My parents still live locally. My dad is a retired veterinarian who now farms and my mom is a retired elementary teacher. In college, I ran cross country and track, was a biology lab assistant, a kindergarten Sunday School teacher, and a preschool/daycare center volunteer.

My husband Frank is from Peru, Indiana and attended DePauw University majoring in computer science. We have a four-year old daughter Lydia.

I enjoy outdoor sports, especially running. I’ve hiked a portion of the Appalachian Trail and ran two triathlons and a marathon. I also like to spend time with family and friends, garden, play board games, and read.

The place I would most like to visit is Kilimanjaro National Park.

After my EMT course in college.

Physiology, difficult medical diagnoses, and taking care of patients.

I enjoy the camaraderie of the physicians and staff, relationships with patients, and the opportunity to practice the specialty I enjoy in my hometown.
