Outside the Office
Outside of medicine, Dr. Sorenson is a devoted husband and father who values time with his family. Married since 2001, he and his wife have raised three children at different stages of life, and their golden retriever, Freya, keeps the household lively. A lifelong learner, he enjoys reading—especially dystopian stories and classics—along with playing guitar and occasionally piano. Music is a shared interest at home, where his children also enjoy exploring different instruments.
Dr. Sorenson finds balance in the outdoors, whether fishing, hunting, or simply enjoying the warmer Texas climate after years in the Midwest. He and his family also enjoy supporting Magnolia and MAC swim, as well as other local school and athletic programs. Known for his approachable nature and genuine care, he strives to bring that same down-to-earth warmth into his medical practice.
