Please join us in welcoming Laura Noble, Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), who is now part of our Orthopedic Clinic working alongside Dr. Jon Blake, our newest orthopedic surgeon.
Laura grew up in Appleton City and is beyond excited to be part of bringing high-quality orthopedic care to our rural community.
"When I was in middle school, I sustained an injury (radius and ulnar fractures). I had to have this treated in Springfield, as there was no orthopedic specialist locally to provide this kind of care. I remember those long drives, and oh how nice it would have been to have access to this kind of care close to home! I am excited to be a part of something that brings specialized access to orthopedic care to a rural community, including surgical care."
With nearly 9 years of experience in family practice, Laura is now ready to dive into orthopedics. Starting in March, Laura will be seeing patients four days a week, working closely with Dr. Blake to provide specialized orthopedic care—everything from joint replacements to fracture care.
Scheduling for Laura will be open in early March, so you’ll soon be able to book appointments with her directly. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, call us at 660-200-7006!
We’re proud to have Laura on board, and we know she’ll make a huge difference in our community’s health and well-being.
