Our Story
Dr. Paul Mink established his practice of family medicine in 1959 with the formation of Attala Medical Clinic in Kosciusko. Dr. A. Coleman Pickle (general surgeon) joined him in 1959. Dr. Robert Gilliland joined in 1964, followed by Dr. Stanley Hartness in 1969, Dr. Richard Carter in 1979. and Dr. Timothy Alford in 1986. Drs. Jackey and Betty Turner joined The Family Medicine Clinic in 1986, followed by Dr. Gary Holdiness in 1987. In 1993 Attala Medical Clinic merged with The Family Medicine Clinic thru the Methodist Health Care System. In October 1999 Kosciusko Medical Clinic was formed in the merger with Jackson Medical Clinic. That union was the catalyst for forming the current organization, Premier Medical Group of Mississippi, LLC. Today, Premier Medical Group includes eight physicians, eight nurse practitioners, and many visiting specialists.
