Orthopedic Surgeon,
Lehigh Valley Health Network
Read More
Jonathon Brown is a 1998 graduate of SMM. His passion for science was nurtured by Mrs. Stohl and his desire to always seek deeper knowledge was driven by Mr. Ralston- both pillars of the school when he was a student. He is originally from the Mill Creek area and went to high school at Henry M. Jackson where he was an honor student as well as a varsity letterman in both football and wrestling. He continued with undergraduate studies at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington and graduate studies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. While a student at Puget Sound he played varsity football and was active in the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity. He honed his passion for service to the community through extensive volunteer work in the greater Tacoma area. He completed his medical education at the Touro University Nevada College of Osteopathic Medicine in Henderson, Nevada. His orthopedic surgery residency continued in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and his training culminated with the Otto E. Aufranc fellowship in adult reconstructive surgery at New England Baptist Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. He currently is an attending orthopedic surgeon through the Lehigh Valley Health Network in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Dr. Brown credits his strong faith, his supportive family, and the educational foundation provided by St. Mary Magdalen with his academic and professional success. Beyond that, the service and vocational aspects of his work as a physician are guided daily by the principles that were instilled at him through his time at SMM. He continues to be a strong supporter of Catholic education and the commitment to faith-filled service that it instills in its current and former students.
