He also enjoys spending time with his aussies, cats, and chickens in the backyard, playing catch with his son, Holdyn, and taking up gardening with his wife in an attempt to eat and grow healthy food. If the sun is shining, Dr. Murphy is outside.

Dr. Murphy and his wife, a local dentist, are committed to making a positive impact on the health and wellness of the people in their community. He is excited to begin serving the Quad City Area with the utmost care, compassion, and expertise.
