Doctor Joe McGinley, Climbing Everest

Doctor Joe McGinley is a board-certified diagnostic radiologist who has a successful practice in Casper.

By all accounts, Doc McGinley is an accomplished man of medicine and successful businessman.  But there is something more, something deeper that he wants to accomplish.  The good doctor wants to summit all seven peaks in the world.  He almost accomplished that task but Everest, the highest point on earth, stands in his way.  He trained for his ascent and recently flew into Kathmandu, Nepal to conquer the mountain.  But it wasn’t to be.  In his interview, Dr. McGinley recounts of how far he climbed on Everest and why he didn’t make it to the top.
