A native of Delaware, Dr. King developed an early passion for science and medicine, which led him to graduate summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Delaware State University.

In addition to his clinical work, Dr. King is committed to advancing the field of medicine through research and education. He has co-authored several peer-reviewed publications in Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, highlighting his dedication to evidence-based practice and continual improvement in patient care.
