Dr. Horne graduated from West Point in 1969 and was commissioned a 2nd lieutenant in the Field Artillery. He served in Vietnam and at Fort Carson, CO as a forward observer and battery commander. While stationed at Fort Carson he decided to pursue an early dream and applied for the military medical education program. Dr. Horne was accepted by the Army program and Emory University Medical School in Atlanta, Georgia, where he graduated with his medical degree in 1977. He was promoted to major and returned to Colorado to Fitzsimons Army Medical Center in Aurora for his internship and residency in urology, graduating from that program in 1982.
Dr. Horne practiced as a staff urologist in the Army from 1982 to 1985 in Frankfurt, Germany and from 1985 to 1987 at Fitzsimons. He was selected as chief of the Urology Service and director of the residency training program and served in that position from 1987 until his retirement from the Army as a Colonel in 1989. After three separate tours with the Army in Colorado, he decided to remain here and in 1989, Dr. Horne joined Dr. Galansky, whom he had known since their training days as residents, at Urology Associates. Besides practicing general urology, Dr. Horne has special interests in urologic oncology, reconstruction, incontinence, and stone disease. He is board certified in urology and is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
