Warren S. Tubbs M.D. has been with EPIC Imaging since 1996. He obtained his bachelor's degree at Stanford University with a major in human biology and special interest in physiology. He earned his medical degree from the University of Vermont Medical College in 1991 with honors in medicine; neuroscience; pediatrics; nuclear radiology and preventive cardiology; physical medicine and rehabilitation. He completed residency in diagnostic radiology at the Mayo Clinic-Rochester and achieved board certification from the American Board of Radiology in 1995. Contributing to individual patient care at the Mayo Clinic provided experience in the multi-specialty "team approach" to medical care. At this international referral center, he gained exposure to a wide spectrum of medical diseases, both common and rare. Professional experiences also included a six week radiology educational course given by the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Washington, D.C. and work at the Mayo-Scottsdale, Arizona facility. Academic achievements include publication in the American Journal of Roentgenology and a formal seminar presentation on "Computer Assisted Instruction: Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Soft Tissue Tumors" at the Mayo Clinic. Although he enjoyed all aspects of a general practice, Dr. Tubbs pursued supplemental fellowship training in abdominal imaging at the University of Utah Medical Center in 1996. This year was devoted to multi-modality imaging using CT, ultrasound, MRI, non-invasive vascular diagnosis, fluoroscopy, and general hospital radiography. Interventional procedures included ultrasound and CT guided aspirations and biopsies.

Professional memberships include the American Medical Association, Oregon Medical Association, American College of Radiology, American Roentgen Ray Society, Radiological Society of North America, American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound, Pacific Northwest Radiological Society, Oregon Radiological Society and the Metropolitan Medical Society of Portland.

Dr. Tubbs has been involved in maintaining high standards at EPIC by obtaining voluntary site accreditation in the ultrasound department with the American Institute for Ultrasound in Medicine and the American College of Radiology. He is certified by the International Society of Clinical Densitometry.

Dr. Tubbs is a native to the Northwest and was raised in Spokane, Washington. In the past, his interests have led him to the summit of Mt. Rainier, to the ski slopes as downhill patroller and to the art studio for "lost wax" bronze sculptures. Currently, he is a marathon runner. He is a member and contributor to the Portland Art Museum.
