Prairie Business magazine officially released its annual 40 Under 40 list, featuring the Northern Plains top 40 business professionals under age of 40. NDMA is pleased to share that Dr. Joshua Ranum, president of NDMA, was selected as one of the top 40.

Dr. Ranum, a native of Scranton, ND, attended Jamestown College and finished at the North Dakota State University, Fargo, where he received his bachelor of science degree. He received his medical degree from the University of North Dakota School of Medicine & Health Sciences and completed his internship through Altru Health in Grand Forks and his Internal Medicine residency at Grand Rapids Medical Education Partners in Michigan.

It didn't take Dr. Ranum long to become fully engaged with a comprehensive rural medicine practice in Hettinger, North Dakota where he quickly became a key part of serving the community through West River Health Services.

Dr. Ranum has served on multiple boards including those of West River Health Services, Adams County Development Corp, and the Hettinger United Methodist Church. He is the volunteer medical director for three ambulance services, is a football offical, and plays in the local Cowboy Band.

As the pandemic hit the state, Dr. Ranum quickly became a familiar face. He has given numerous media interviews and serves as an advisor to the North Dakota Department of Health and Governor's office on the coronavirus response.
