"Family Medicine is about building long-lasting relationships with families and truly making a difference over the long term."
About Me
Farm boy turned pediatrician and father of three, I started off as a girl dad with two darling daughters. Now I have a toddler son who is here to overthrow our tea parties. I initially joined Phelps Health part-time but quickly grew to love Rolla, the community and the hospital environment.
Why Phelps Health?
Phelps Health is committed to serving the surrounding communities for generations, and I loved the idea of building long-lasting relationships with families and truly making a difference over the long term.

I do not get to read as often as I hope, but I love a good mystery and grew up reading detective stories.
