Dr. Tassone grew up in the Berkshires of Massachusetts and spent his young adulthood outside of Denver Colorado. He stayed in Denver after high school, attending college at Regis College, a Jesuit University where his interest in medicine began to grow.
After graduation Dr. Tassone moved to Omaha to attend medical school at Creighton University and then on to complete his residency at the University of Oklahoma. While at the University of Oklahoma he won numerous awards such as the Resident Teaching Award where he was also the Administrative Chief Resident.
Following the completion of his residency, he spent 4 years in the US Army at Reynolds Army Community Hospital where he was honored as the Section Head of Obstetrics and Gynecology from 2000-2002 in addition to receiving the Army Commendation Medal.
