Zach Havlovick, MD

Name: Zach Havlovick, MD
Hometown: Idaho Falls, ID
Medical School: University of Washington School of Medicine, WWAMI Idaho

Why did you choose Family Medicine? - As I went throughout my training, I found I really enjoy every specialty, every organ system, I enjoy trying to tackle every problem that a patient can have, and most of all I enjoy getting to know people and helping them live their best life. Family Medicine was the obvious marriage between my love of people and medicine.

Why did you choose to train in Idaho? - This is my home! These are my people! There’s no other state I’d want to train and later work in than Idaho!

What excites you most as you begin your training with the MSI? - I’m excited to finally be “a doctor” and not a student. I’m also thrilled to get to work with the people of Nampa and the treasure valley, as well as my awesome faculty and co-residents! It’s just all around an exciting time!

What do you like to do outside of medicine? - I’m all about my family. My wife and son usually get whatever time I have left to spare. We also have another boy on the way! But, when I can, I like to cook, play chess, play/watch every sport, and exercise! I’m a gym junkie and a sports addict.

The program’s commitment to addressing Idaho’s physician shortage—especially in rapidly-growing and Spanish-speaking communities—strongly resonates with me.
