Todd Crane, M.D., FACEP, Welcomed to Flint Hills Campus Emergency Department

Stormont Vail Health proudly welcomes Dr. Todd Crane, a board-certified emergency medicine specialist, to the Flint Hills Campus Emergency Department, Junction City.

 A native Iowan, Dr. Crane has considered himself a “Kansas guy” since moving to Manhattan in 2003 to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology at Kansas State University. Initially, his interest in rehabilitation led him to consider a career in physical therapy. However, as his studies progressed, so did his interest in physiology and anatomy. This curiosity encouraged him to obtain his medical degree at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, where he also completed his Emergency Medicine residency and Emergency Ultrasound fellowship.

“One of the things that attracted me to emergency medicine was its spontaneity and unpredictability,” Dr. Crane said. “You can never assume what will come in, so you have to be ready to see anything. I can treat a kid with an ear infection, deliver a baby, or care for an older adult on any given day, which I enjoy about this field.”

Since moving back to Manhattan in 2021, Dr. Crane and his family have proudly called the Flint Hills community home. He is board-certified in emergency medicine by the American Board of Emergency Medicine and is a Fellow of the American College of Emergency Physicians. For Dr. Crane, caring for patients in the emergency department is an absolute honor. As the Flint Hills Campus Emergency Department team’s newest member, he is eager to help bring compassionate, high quality care to his community. Outside work, Dr. Crane enjoys visiting coffee shops, reading, playing the violin, and nurturing his three children’s own musical talents.
