Michael Arnold, DO

Michael Arnold, DO, is a board-certified primary care physician at East Crossroads Clinic - Primary Care, dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered care. A retired U.S. Army officer who reached the rank of Lieutenant Colonel (LTC), Dr. Arnold brings leadership, integrity, and a strong commitment to service to every patient interaction.

His clinical interests include osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), auricular acupuncture, minor procedures, and acute care. Dr. Arnold values a comprehensive approach to medicine and believes in partnering with patients to help them achieve their health goals.

Dr. Arnold is committed to transparency and honesty with his patients. He believes trust is built through open communication and recognizes that no physician has all the answers. Rather than pretending to know everything, he strives to listen carefully, remain humble, and collaborate to find the best path forward for each individual.

His philosophy of care is rooted in the belief that medicine is both challenging and ever-changing. He considers caring for others a privilege and feels honored every day to be part of a profession that can make a meaningful difference in people's lives. For Dr. Arnold, success is measured by whether the person sitting across from him feels heard, empowered, and increasingly confident in the care they receive. He is committed to treating every patient with the same respect, compassion, and attention he would want for a member of his own family.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Arnold enjoys spending time with his family, playing board games, sharing dad jokes, competing on the pickleball court, and skiing whenever he can.
