Dr. Shardul Poudyal
Overview
For Shardul Poudyal, MD, The Iowa Clinic presented an excellent care model for not only their patients but the community as well, which he admired when choosing a practice. He chose Internal Medicine because it allows him to build lifelong relationships with patients and their families in their time of need.
