Dan Bowers, MD

Specialties

I am board certified in Family Medicine and an AAHIVM certified HIV specialist. For the past 20 years I have focused on adult medicine and routine preventative care including annual physicals, cancer screening, and general health care for community acquired infections and standard medical conditions such as hypertension.

I also have extensive experience in travel medicine, STD’s, and male aging.

As a nationally recognized HIV provider, I have over 25 years of experience in HIV diagnosis and treatment. I often provide second opinions on complicated cases or questions about treatment options. I write a medical column for HIV Plus Magazine and am part of the «ask the doc» panel for aegis​.com.

History

Established in 1980.

Undergraduate — Stanford University — 1973

Medical School — University of Iowa — 1977

Residency — University of Minnesota Dept of Family Practice — 1980

After residency, I was invited to teach at the Minnesota Medical School. I also joined a clinic in Saint Paul where I practiced the full gamut of family medicine including delivering babies, setting fractures, performing minor surgery, and running a nursing home.

In 1989 I joined Pacific Oaks Medical Group in Los Angeles, the largest private practice in the country specializing in HIV. In addition to caring for my HIV patients, I conducted clinical trials for HIV drugs and maintained a large adult medical practice.

In 2008 I moved to New York where my practice is a combination of adult medicine and HIV.

Meet the Business Owner

Dan B.

Business Owner

I was born and raised in LeMars, Iowa, a typical midwest county seat community of 7000. We spent our summers swimming and sailing on Lake Okoboji on the Iowa — Minnesota border in a cottage build by my grandparents. I still consider myself to be a Midwesterner in temperament personally and professionally.

I have served on numerous boards including the Minnesota Opera Association, the Minnesota Chorale, and AIDS Research Alliance. I was on the national board of Lambda Legal for seven years and am now a member of its National Leadership Council.

My favorite avocation is choral singing, and I have sung in various community and semi-​professional choirs.
