About Matthew Trump, DO, FACP, FCCP
Matthew Trump, DO, FACP, FCCP has been with The Iowa Clinic since 2014. He currently serves as the Medical Director for UnityPoint Pulmonary Rehabilitation.

Managing complex problems in the intensive care unit and chronic disease care is what originally appealed to Dr. Trump about Pulmonary/Critical Care Medicine. The constant challenge and the opportunity to learn every day are additional aspects he enjoys. What tops it all off are patient relationships he builds. Getting to know his patients and their families during serious illnesses, the continuity of care he can provide in the clinic after recovery, and identifying patient goals and working together, all provide him satisfaction. He often runs into his patients and their families in the community, and he loves the continued conversations they can have as not only their physician but their friend.
Dr. Trump is lucky enough to be married to his best friend. He and his wife have three growing boys that keep them busy. In his free time, he likes to watch movies, go to concerts, read, travel, watch and attend football and MLB games, cook with his family, maintain his home garden, and exercise.
