Biography

Dr. Crunk is a board certified family practice physician who has lived and worked in Mammoth Lakes since 1983. In 1995, after owning and operating a private practice for over 13 years, he closed the practice and began working for the district in opening their new family medicine outpatient clinic. His current practice includes all facets of primary care (with the exception of obstetrics), including urgent care, adult medicine, pediatrics, orthopedics and sports medicine. He has served the Eastern Sierra for over 33 years.

In addition to family medicine, Dr. Crunk is also a certified Aviation Medical Examiner. He is the Medical Director for Sierra Life Flight, based in Bishop, California and a private pilot with over 3,500 hours of flight time.

Dr. Crunk was elected to the hospital board in November 2010 and was honored to have the opportunity to serve the hospital and community during his four year term. He has served as chief of staff at Mammoth Hospital twice, 1992-1993 and 1998-1999.

Dr. Crunk is married with two adult children. He currently spends most of his free time with his two new grandchildren.
