David Paulsrud’s (59MD) life has been defined by service to northwest Iowa, the medical community, and his country. A former Green Beret, Paulsrud trained as an orthopedic surgeon, but the latter half of his career was shaped by his passion for serving patients with substance use disorder. His contributions to addiction treatment systems in the Sioux City, Iowa, area are broad and deep, but perhaps his most profound legacy is the many generous, warm individual relationships he formed with adolescents and adults in recovery. Now in his 90s, Paulsrud continues to share his wisdom with patients and providers alike.
