Two hometown clinicians — reunited and caring for the community that raised them.

Alex Anderson, DO, and Krystal Simmons, CNP, grew up in Greenfield, went to Buckskin Elementary, graduated from McClain High School … and now they’re back to care for the place they’ve always called home.

Their message is simple: “This community supported us. Now we’re here to support you.”

🏡 Now welcoming new patients in Greenfield.
