About Dr. King

Dr. King is a hospitalist for the Family Medicine service. He graduated from UAMS in 1984 and completed his postgraduate training at Family Medicine Spokane (Washington). He was in private practice for 15 years in Spokane and later worked urgent care and emergency medicine before moving to hospital medicine. He was previously employed by UAMS in El Dorado at the AHEC (now Regional Programs) residency as interim residency director where he led the program through successful accreditation. Throughout his career, he has been involved in medical education at various levels, and he loves teaching. One of his most fulfilling medical endeavors was working in a refugee camp in Ethiopia during the famine of 1985.

I'll recommend friends and family members to this provider because this provider breaks it down to where you can understand what's going on. And help you care for your health. And awareness. Thanks.

I appreciate the time Dr. King took with me and listened to my concerns. He did a great job looking me in the eyes when he talked to me and didn't look at the computer screen when talking to me. This is the best I have felt in years after an annual check-up, I was able to get the test I wanted and have comfort from the test given. Thank you!

The physician was not my PCP, but he was good.

I only saw him once, so I answered 'always' though it was rhetorically incorrect
