Biography:
I'm originally from Pryor,OK, a town that is 45 miles east of Tulsa. At an early age my life took me around the western part of our nation. I have called Absorkee, MT, Boise, ID, Prairie Grove, AK , Yukon, OK, and finally Huntsville, MO home by the time I finished high school. I attended Moberly Jr. College's paramedic program, where I earned my paramedic certification (EMT-P) that was my career from 1979 until 2001. This helped set the stage for my education as a Physician Assistant. (PA). Upon entering PA school I had every intention of becoming a heart surgeon PA, but I found my calling in Family Medicine. After graduating I was able to met with Dr Smith, and we have been an effective Physician-PA team for since 2001.
