Upon earning his medical degree, he entered the U.S. Navy as an enlisted officer serving as ship's doctor on the USS Agerholm during the Vietnam Era. He received the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal while serving in the U.S. Navy. After the Vietnam War he went on to specialize in the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology. At the completion of his internship in San Diego, CA, Dr. Wambo moved back to his hometown of Richmond to raise his family. He did so and practiced as an OB/GYN physician until 1983 at which time he and his family moved to Panama City so that he could enjoy boating, which was his passion outside of his work and family. He worked with his former Indiana University friend, Dr. Steven Smith until he went into private practice in 1986. Dr. Wambo practiced medicine in Panama City until he retired. He also served as Chief of Staff at Gulf Coast Medical Center in Bay County, FL, during the last part of his medical career.

A few of his notable accolades were serving as County Corner in Wayne Co., IN, while continuing his OB/GYN practice during the last eight years he was there. He was awarded Sagamore of the Wabash - an award presented by the State Governor to exemplary citizens of Indiana who have contributed greatly to Hoosier heritage.
