Molly Gross, MD joined The Iowa Clinic in 2017 after moving back home from Utah to be closer to her family in Beaverdale. She chose colorectal surgery because of mentors in medical school and residency who showed her the great parts of being a colorectal surgeon. She enjoys the diversity and wide variety of cases colorectal surgery has to offer. The most rewarding part of her job is helping people feel comfortable talking about something they are uncomfortable talking about.

Jeannette Capella, MD joined The Iowa Clinic to be part of a trusted, physician governed healthcare organization that provides quality patient care. She values a culture of compassionate, hardworking physicians who care about their patients and colleagues. Dr. Capella comes to the clinic with nearly 20 years of experience, most recently as the Assistant Director of Trauma at UPMC Altoona in Pennsylvania. Being a trauma surgeon provides daily challenges; one never knows who or what is coming through the door next. Since nearly every patient she sees is probably going through the worst day of their life, she finds her role as their surgeon instantly gratifying. She is rewarded by being able to make a meaningful impact on their lives. Since 2001, Dr. Capella has joined numerous deployments with federal disaster response teams, including Hurricane Rita (2005), Haiti (2010) and Hurricane Maria (2017). She has also provided humanitarian aid in Zambia and Honduras. Currently, she serves on the Trauma and Critical Care Team (East), based in Boston.

Michael Valliere, MD joined The Iowa Clinic because of our positive and collaborative atmosphere and focus on optimal care for every patient. General surgery affords Dr. Valliere the opportunity to treat a wide variety of patients and diseases, as well as work among a multi-specialty group. He understands preparing for and going through surgery can often evoke worry and stress, which is why reassuring his patients and their families is a top priority.
