Edna Becht, DO (she/her) joined The Iowa Clinic to move closer to family and join an organization with a reliable reputation. While in medical school, Dr. Becht rotated through several specialties before deciding on Family Medicine because it allows her to practice everything from internal medicine and pediatrics to gynecology and sports medicine. She enjoys helping patients to meet their health goals, and make sure they feel as fit and healthy as possible to take on their lives.
A second-generation physician and third-generation medicine woman, Dr. Becht grew up in northwest Indiana, where she still donates to animal sanctuaries in the area. In her free time, she enjoys practicing jiu jitsu, spending time with her husband, kids, and pets. If Dr. Becht was not a provider, she might have become a teacher or semi-truck driver, because she loves to share knowledge and see the country.
