Born in Cresco, Iowa, Cory grew up in rural Iowa and attended a local liberal arts college founded by Dutch settlers. The historical connection resulted in the completion of his B.A. at the study abroad campus in Leiden, Holland. It is there he met his lovely wife Lilian. While at Central College, Cory got his first direct exposure to patient care as a CNA in a local nursing home and Alzheimer’s unit. He continued his CNA work as a volunteer during his exchange program in Holland. Upon completion of his B.A., he completed the remaining pre-medical requirements at the University of Iowa while Lilian continued to work on her masters at Leiden, University. A year and a half later, Cory had completed his pre-medical requirements and Lilian filled in his Dutch Medical School application due to his inability to even read it. After completing mandatory and intensive Dutch Language courses between January and June of 1994, Cory matriculated into the 2000 graduating class of Leiden University Medical School in September 1994. During medical school in Leiden, Cory was Editor of the Predoctor student medical journal, President of the Sir Alexander Fleming Medical Society, and was active in research. During medical school he completed rotations and research projects at Mayo Clinic, The University of Colorado and The University of Nebraska. He published numerous articles in international journals and presented research results in Leiden, Dublin, Fort Lauderdale and Kansas City. The day after graduation from medical school Cory and Lilian married in Holland. Shortly thereafter, Cory started and completed an internship in Internal Medicine at Bronovo Hospital in The Hague, Holland. Upon completion of the internship, Cory returned to the United States to secure a residency position at the University of Nebraska Rural Training Track in Scottsbluff, Nebraska. A year later Lilian immigrated to the high plains of western Nebraska. Their daughter Lauren was delivered in January of 2004 by her mom and dad in Scottsbluff. As a volunteer Cory taught elementary students in Rochester, Minnesota through the Doctor’s Ought to Care program at Mayo Clinic, presented Geriatric Public Health Fair Lectures in Scottsbluff, and participated in the Husker Harvester Days Pulmonary Evaluation for Farmers and Ranchers. Cory completed the geriatric fellowship in 2006 and is currently a practicing geriatrician in Minnesota.
