Gregory Lancaster, DO

I am a dad to 4 wild and beautiful girls, husband to my incredible/beautiful/brilliant/witty/loving wife, Megan, and an apprentice of Jesus. I'm a guy who loves music, good food, a great book or movie, sports, exploring new outdoor wonders, hanging out with great people, and a good laugh.

I am also a board certified family medicine physician. Why leave a great career as a PA in family medicine to start all over and become a physician? I practiced for years as a physician assistant in the insurance based world and experienced day in and day out the struggles that patients experience in that system.

Frustrating phone trees, waiting weeks for appointments, hours in the waiting rooms, and rushed visits. Not to mention that everything is a hidden cost. It was difficult to take pride in what I was doing when the patient experience was so poor.

During that time I would help my family and friends get medical services through the back door because the front door was so frustrating. The poor care is often not because of bad doctors, nurses, or staff. On the contrary, they can be incredible! I loved the teams I worked with as a PA. I had great bosses, incredible coworkers, and worked with the best people. It's just that we were all stuck in a broken system built by gargantuan insurance companies and government programs.
