He graduated with honors from the University of Oregon with a degree in biology and a minor in biochemistry. Dr. Taylor earned his medical degree from Oregon Health Sciences University in 1992 followed by an internship and one year residency in General Surgery at the Phoenix Integrated Surgical Residency Program in Arizona.
