Dr. Keeter (profile)

Dr. Michelle Keeter 

Keeter is from Smith River, Calif., and is a descendant of the Tolowa and Karuk Native American tribes from that area. She earned a medical degree from Loma Linda School of Medicine and worked as a medical assistant before medical school.

She chose to train in Hanford because she likes to work in rural areas similar to her hometown. As a child, she said she was always interested in the human body and how it works.

"Becoming a physician allowed me to use that knowledge to better people's lives and take care of them," she said.
