Scott grew up in Southeast Alaska, completed his undergraduate education at a Liberal arts school in Memphis, TN and then spent time working at a teacher on the Texas border before deciding on a career in medicine.  He graduated from the University of Arizona College of Medicine in 2012 and completed his residency in Emergency medicine at WVU in 2015.  Dr. Findley enjoys working in various practice environments, from rural 24 hour shifts to level 1 trauma stroke centers and believes working in diverse settings aid in understanding the struggles of emergency medicine at a systems level.  His current professional interests include rural emergency medicine, telemedicine and working to address provider shortages in critical access areas.  He enjoys fly fishing, hiking, biking and anything outdoors.  If he is not outside, you might find him in the garage, fixing a "new to me" jalopy of some sort.   He also enjoys cooking, playing in the yard and taking care of his ever expanding family with his wife, Amelia.
