He completed his residency in internal medicine at Wright Patterson Air Force Base/Wright State University near Dayton, Ohio. Dr. Matthews finished a pulmonary and critical care fellowship at San Antonio Medical Center at Fort Sam in Houston, Texas and he is double board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine in pulmonary and critical care medicine.

While the Air Force took him all around the country, he is glad to be in Virginia where he and his wife met as undergrads.

Dr. Matthews is outstanding. He personally sent me a text through the MyChart system to let me know the results of an x-ray that was important to our upcoming visit. He is caring and he made me feel like my health was a priority to him
