General Info

Paul Wesley, DO joined The Iowa Clinic Cardiology department because he enjoys the multi-specialty model of the Clinic, and is excited to collaborate with other providers for best patient care. A Kentucky native, Dr. Wesley attended Des Moines University for medical school, where he fell in love with Des Moines and made it a goal to move back. He chose Cardiology because he understands the importance of physician-patient relationships and appreciates the way the heart presents a challenge every day so he can educate patients and partner with them to make their lives better. Dr. Wesley wasn’t always involved in medicine – in fact, he spent the first 10 years of out college as an accountant. It wasn’t until 2009 that he decided to pursue his career in medicine. He is very passionate about geriatric medicine and hopes to expand his passion to help the older patient population to not only live longer but live better. Outside of work, Dr. Wesley enjoys getting involved in his church, running, watching college sports, taking walks, cooking, video games, and spending time with his wonderful wife and two cats. If he was not a provider, he would have been a teacher – as one of his favorite parts of medicine is the aspect of teaching.
