Dr. Chris Ricketts, M.D., went to Indiana University for both his undergraduate and medical school degrees. He completed his family medicine residency at Methodist/Indiana University Hospital, followed by an Obstetrics Fellowship at Florida Hospital, Orlando.
When asked what he loves about family medicine, he said, “I love doing life together with people. There’s no substitute for walking life’s journey with other people, regardless of whether their concerns are small or great.”
Dr. Ricketts started working at Woodlawn in 2002 and provides family medicine and obstetrical services.
“I appreciate the concern staff exhibit as they provide excellent care within our hospital’s scope of practice. I also love the fact that we are a self-sustaining, independent hospital,” he stated.
When Dr. Ricketts is not seeing patients or delivering babies, you will find him doing woodworking and building furniture. Also, he often finds himself reading a variety of books at any one time.
