He previously worked for three years at the University of Delaware Student Health Center. He and UD Assistant Director of Athletics for Sports Medicine Dr. Andrew Reisman are responsible for the medical care and treatment of all University of Delaware student-athletes.

Originally from Boise, Idaho, Dr. Gustavsen earned his degree in Government and International Relations from the University of Notre Dame and earned his medical degree from the University of Washington in 1989.

Gustavsen did his residency in family medicine at Phoenix Baptist Medical Center in Phoenix, Ariz., and he remained there to teach and practice for several years afterwards. While in Phoenix, he also became board certified in Medical Acupuncture and used acupuncture in his practice extensively.

Their work, done in Delaware's Human Performance Lab, looks at the effects of electro-acupuncture on unstable ankles.
