Joshua Tierney

Dr. Joshua S. Tierney is working as a Surgeon at UCHealth because of how well it sets patients up for a successful road to healing. Patients receive a multi-disciplinary approach to their treatment plans because each surgeon at UCHealth actively communicates with other members of a patient’s medical team, and works to strategize as a collective. So, patients benefit from a team of medical professionals who are experts in their respective fields, all working together in one convenient location.

Dr. Tierney received his undergraduate degree at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, and began his medical education at Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, Indiana. He continued his professional medical development with an internship and residency in General Surgery at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN. He then continued further with his medical training with a Fellowship in Interventional Endoscopy, Hepatobiliary, and Pancreatic Surgery at the University of Louisville Department of Surgery in Louisville, KY.

He is married with two daughters and is a volunteer with medical missions abroad. He enjoys outdoor activities such as trail running, mountain biking, and fly fishing.
