Dr. Josh Maxwell loves being back in West Jordan! He grew up just a few miles down the road and graduated from Copper Hills High School, followed by a degree in Biology and a minor in Chemistry and Spanish from BYU. He attended American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine which included 2 years of classroom learning on the beautiful island of St. Maarten and 2 years of clinical training in Long Island, NY. Afterwards, he completed his Pediatric Residency at Cooper University Medical Center located in Southern New Jersey just outside of Philadelphia. When deciding whether to stay on the East Coast or come back to Utah, a trip to Zion's National Park easily convinced him that Utah was the better choice, and he has been at SWCC ever since!
When not in clinic, you will likely find him in the mountains either hiking or skiing, or in his garage gym. For fun, he is an NASM Certified Personal Trainer, runs a home gym blog (Rebel-Strong.com), and participates as an athlete and coach in the bi-annual Garage Gym Competition. 
También es bilingüe y habla español/castellano.  Vivió en Buenos Aires durante algunos años y no solo le permitió aprender el español, sino que le permitió involucrarse completamente en la cultura, el maté, el fútbol, y con la genta para convertirse, de verdad, en un Argentino de corazón.
Ultimately, Dr. Maxwell strives to combine principles of research-based medicine with an active lifestyle to promote physical, mental, and emotional health and well-being across all ages!
