Dr. Vadney’s journey to a career in medicine is unique. Originally he attended college to major in Mass Communications / Theatre Arts and earned his Bachelor’s from Castleton State College in Vermont in 1988. In 1994 he pursued his Masters in Drama from the University of Arkansas. This degree advanced his career in the arts and he found himself exploring the country, immersed in several large productions. While working as a Production Stage Manager in California, he had the opportunity to take an EMS course to assist in his responsibilities.
