Edward Discoe, M.D.

"I grew up in Paxton, Nebraska on a farm in the North River Valley just below Lake McConaughy...

I learned to value the freedom of rural life and had every intention of returning to the area. When it came time to select a practice, the years of my youth and family ultimately made the Columbus medical community an ideal choice. My wife Pam and I have four children who have thrived in this community. We have found ourselves enamored and in awe of the congeniality that exists among the people and physicians here. I am able to provide personalized compassionate comprehensive healthcare for people of all ages and allow them to maximize their health potential.”
