(JUNCTION CITY, Kan. Feb. 5, 2024) – Stormont Vail Health proudly welcomes Dr. Todd Crane, a board certified emergency medicine specialist, to the Flint Hills Campus Emergency Department in Junction City.
A native Iowan, Dr. Crane has proudly considered himself a “Kansas guy” since moving to Manhattan in 2003 to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology at Kansas State University. Initially, his interest in rehabilitation led him to consider a career in physical therapy. However, as his studies progressed, so did his keen interest in physiology and anatomy.
This curiosity encouraged him to obtain his medical degree at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, where he also completed his Emergency Medicine residency and Emergency Ultrasound fellowship.
“One of the things that attracted me to emergency medicine was its spontaneity and unpredictability,” Dr. Crane said. “You can never assume what will come in, so you have to be ready to see anything. I can treat a kid with an ear infection, deliver a baby, or care for an older adult on any given day, which I enjoy about this field.”
Since moving back to Manhattan in 2021, Dr. Crane and his family have proudly called the Flint Hills community home. He is board-certified in emergency medicine by the American Board of Emergency Medicine and is a Fellow of the American College of Emergency Physicians.
