Dr. Kesler earned his bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Utah State University before pursuing medicine. He attended medical school at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville where he was a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Honor Society.

After medical school, Dr. Kesler then completed a 5-year orthopaedic residency at the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics in Iowa City, Iowa, where he earned several honors, including being named resident teacher of the year.

Dr. Kesler’s final year of training was spent in a spine surgery …fellowship at Norton Leatherman Spine Center in Louisville, Kentucky. There he trained under both orthopaedic spine surgeons and neurosurgeons, exposing him to a diverse set of surgical techniques. Dr. Kesler particularly enjoys employing the full range of surgical options available to spine surgeons –like large open procedures for scoliosis and minimally invasive microsurgery techniques that employ specialized robotics and navigation technologies. It’s this variation and opportunity to perform such a diverse set procedures that drew him specifically to orthopaedic spine as a subspecialty.
