Meet our AC Rural Health Clinic Providers!

Stacey Dobbs, FNP-BC, graduated with her Masters in Nursing from Saint Louis University. She contributes nearly twelve years of experience as a nurse practitioner to the clinic. Stacey has a special interest in preventative wellness and chronic disease management. Stacey values working at the AC Rural Health Clinic, as she enjoys working somewhere where she feels she can make a difference. Outside of work, Stacey enjoys spending time with her family, working with her horses, jack stock and mules, gardening, and painting/crafting. Stacey is available by appointment every Tuesday through Friday.

Jamie O’Farrell, FNP-BC graduated with her Masters in Nursing from Maryville University. Jamie, a rural Appleton City native, has been with the clinic since 2018. She has a strong working knowledge of chronic disease management and pediatric care and is driven by a desire to give back to the community that she was raised in and still calls home. When asked what she likes to do in her free time, she simply laughs, asking what that even means! However, when she can, Jamie tries to find time to garden, bake, go fishing, and help on her family farm. Jamie is available for appointments on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.

Dr. Christopher Maxwell, MD attended medical school at the University Of Kansas School Of Medicine and completed his residency in family medicine at Langlade Memorial Hospital in Antigo, Wisconsin. Dr. Maxwell has worked in and around the Harrisonville area for 23 years, mostly as a hospice and ER provider. His areas of focus are rural family medicine and emergency medicine. When asked why he chose rural healthcare, Dr. Maxwell says because he has always enjoyed small town life and likes developing relationships with people and families. Outside of the clinic, Dr. Maxwell stays busy keeping up with his 9 children. He enjoys basketball, golf, and hiking. Dr. Maxwell is available for appointments every other Tuesday.

If you’re interested in setting up primary care with any of our providers, please call the AC Rural Health Clinic at 660.476.2121.
