Hi, my name is Ricardo Bodra, born and raised in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Prior to earning a physician assistant degree from Des Moines University, I worked as a dialysis technician and caregiver at a skilled nursing facility that is dear to my heart.
When I am not working, I like to discover new literature, try news restaurants, and play basketball or futebol (soccer).
I appreciate the longevity of relationships that I get to build in family medicine. Building health literacy takes time, and I look forward to listening and learning about the life experiences behind each great individual seeking care at MercyOne.
I have special interests in preventive care, geriatrics and the treatment of obesity, diabetes, and hypertension.
