David T. Furman, Jr., DO, Senior Associate Program Director

Hello! My name is David Furman, and I’m excited to continue my journey with the FWMEP team!  As a graduate of the FWMEP, I have been continuously impressed with the friendly, supportive, environment and know that this program continues to improve my skills as a well-rounded family physician.

I grew up in Fort Wayne, graduating from Snider High School.  I attended DePauw University for my undergraduate work and Ball State for a masters degree in physiology. I attended the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine – Carolinas Campus for medical school and find my osteopathic education and OMT skills are utilized on a daily basis. 

Previous to medical school, I worked as an EMT, college administrator, and pharmacy tech.  I have previous experience teaching, having taught as an adjunct professor of anatomy and physiology at Ball State and Ivy Tech. 

I enjoy research, pursuing grants and publications, and continue to be involved with work that furthers medical education and patient outcomes.  I enjoy outreach and have completed medical mission trips to Honduras and El Salvador.

Outside of medicine, I love spending time with my wife and son. We enjoy traveling, eating great food, attending local festivals and watching the Colts win!
