Ashley Olson, D.O.

Practicing medicine has been my dream since I was a small child. As a kindergartner, I wrote "docter" in the "what do you want to be when you grow up" section. Patient-centered care is the heart of my practice.

I live by the philosophy that patients do not care how much you know until they know how much you care. Meaning, as a Board Certified Emergency Medicine Physician, I have the knowledge and training required to treat your medical emergency condition; however, even more important is that you experience and feel that I care about you as a person in order to trust my knowledge and training for your condition.

I enjoy blowing off steam by cycling on the Peloton and running. I have always enjoyed singing and used to sing competitively. Additionally, I love musical theatre, but unfortunately, my work in the emergency room does not equate to a schedule that allows for me to participate in productions very often.
