Ricky Aguayo, D.O. Hometown: Burley, ID Medical school: Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine About me: I grew up in Burley, Idaho, and went to Boise State University where I majored in Human Biology. I then worked in the mental health field for three years as a psychological rehabilitation specialist before transitioning to a scribing position. During these six years, I found my joy in family medicine serving small communities and I went on to attend the Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine. In my free time, I like to spend time with my girlfriend and family. Growing up with the mountains a short drive away, I also enjoy a lot of outdoor activities such as camping, rafting, mountain biking, and trail riding.
