Dr. Ken Fore was born in Fairbanks, Alaska and was fortunate to see much of the United States in his childhood thanks to a career military father/family. He is a graduate of University of Maine, at Orono, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Business and further health science coursework through the University of New Mexico. Dr. Fore earned his medical degree from the American University of Integrative Sciences School of Medicine in 2005 and completed his residency at Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine, Kalamazoo, Michigan, in 2010. Dr Fore was elected to the leadership positions of Vice Chief Resident and Chief Resident in his two final years. Upon graduating his psychiatry residency, he and his family moved to Lynchburg, Virginia where he continues to practice in several modalities.
Dr. Fore has been practicing Psychiatric Medicine for 15 years and is board certified in Adult Psychiatry. He is the founding member of Central Virginia Psychiatry where he has been practicing for over seven years. He focuses on all areas of mental health and believes that a combination of psychotherapy, psychopharmacology and psychosocial awareness are paramount in successful treatment.
Personally, Dr. Fore calls Lynchburg his home with his family and three dogs and cat. His interests include family time, home renovation projects, boating at Smith Mountain Lake, being a car enthusiast, and watching his son play baseball.
