The Doctor Is In

Cherry Creek High School grad Matt Iseman has covered as lot of ground since leaving the Creek behind for Princeton, then med school at Columbia and a residency back home at CU. That’s when he pulled the old switcheroo and quit doctoring altogether to stand up and tell jokes in Hollywood. But in Iseman’s case, the move proved spectacular: The current host of Sports Soup on the Versus network and a member of the Style network’s Clean House team, he’s appeared in various television roles and in the summer blockbuster Transformers 2; over the years, he’s also toured worldwide as a comic, entertaining U.S. troops in numerous foreign locations, from Kosovo to Iraq.
