He maintains an active clinical practice in Frisco, Texas, and is also an active QME in the California system. He currently serves as Chief Clinical Advisor and Director of Education for various QME practice management companies, is an adjunct professor at Life Chiropractic College West, and previously served on the board of the California Society of Industrial Medicine and Surgery. Dr. Zuber’s teaching style is relaxed and fun, yet thoughtful, purposeful, and thorough. It’s this approach that has made his QME Exam Prep courses so successful, with a roughly 80% passing rate, compared to the approximately 50% state average. What started as a single QME Exam Prep course offering has expanded to a broader catalog of continuing education courses— thanks to his students consistently asking for more of his insightful training. Dr. Zuber co-founded MedEval Resource Center with his wife, Krista, who serves as Director of Operations. While they spend quite a bit of time in California, they live in McKinney, Texas, and enjoy family time with their three sons and new grandbaby. “Zoob” as Dr. Zuber is often called, is a 3rd-degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and has competed at the international level, bringing home many awards, medals, and accolades.
