About Me

David Tullar, PA completed his Physician Assistant education at Oregon Health and Sciences University in Portland Oregon. He went on to complete a Masters of Physician Assistant Studies with an emphasis in neurology at the University of Nebraska School of Medicine. He pursued his medical career with the goal of practicing neurology and has been involved in the care of patients with neurological diseases for over 20 years.

Although he sees patients with a wide variety of neurological concerns, he has special interest and training in the areas of behavior neurology, the evaluation of patients with memory concerns and movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease and tremor. This work in movement disorders has also involved the selection of patients for surgical interventions such as Deep Brain Stimulation and the post-surgical management of Parkinson’s disease, Essential Tremor and Dystonia over the past 20+ years. A big part of his clinical approach is education, where he actively works to educate patients and families to improve outcomes. He has also been active throughout his career in the education of medical and nursing students.

When not in the clinic, David can be found chasing trout with one of his special bamboo fly rods or exploring the mountains on a dusty gravel bike.

Insurance

St. Peter's Health accepts most major insurances but may not be contracted with them all. To verify if we are in-network with your specific insurance, contact your insurance carrier.

Patients are expected to furnish all the necessary health insurance information and sign the medical release and insurance assignment authorizations. St. Peter’s Health will submit complete insurance claims on the appropriate forms for the charges recorded. 

Keep in mind that insurance is a contract between the patient and his or her insurance company and that St. Peter’s Health is acting only as a billing agent. St. Peter’s Health cannot pursue payment from insurance carriers in the event of non-payment or benefit denials. If a patient’s insurance carrier has not submitted payment within 30 days of billing, St. Peter’s Health expects the patient to pay the balance in full. Patients receive a monthly statement showing any account activity and the remaining balance due.
