JOY S., Educator & EXPERIENCE SPECIALIST
Joy joined the Town Doctor as an educator and experience specialist serving patients while helping them to understand the many benefits of what direct primary care can offer. She grew up in a homeschooling family of 14, and always loved following paths that were non-traditional and ‘out of the box’. Graduating with honors and a math degree from Cumberland University, she knew she wanted to spend time in a career where she could make a difference in both people’s lives, and in her community. A natural educator, she enjoys breaking down the numbers for both individuals and business owners to show the power of this growing model and how it can bring incredible value to them. Capitalizing on her natural leadership abilities, she kindly learns where they are at, and then leads individuals to understand how they too can make a difference in their health. In her free time she enjoys playing music with her husband, traveling to new places, trying new recipes, and leisurely walks with her dog.
