My name is Jessica Simmons-Wright and I am a life-long Western Oklahoma native. I grew up in Elk City and started my career in 2004 at Western Oklahoma State College. I later obtained degrees from Southwestern Oklahoma State University and Spring Arbor University in Michigan. Over the past 15 years I have worked in many areas, from critical care to labor and delivery. In most recent years, I have had the privilege to be a part of the Alliance Health Clinton Hospital team where I worked as a house supervisor. As the town of Clinton and the staff at Alliance Health have become like family to me, I am proud to say that I will now be serving this community as a family nurse practitioner at the Alliance Health Family Clinic. I look forward to this opportunity to provide patients with a comprehensive analysis of their health with an emphasis on health maintenance and disease prevention, as well as assisting those patients who suffer with comlex, chronic disease.
