Dr. Nason, the founder and medical director of NasonCare, has over twenty years of experience treating patients in the emergency room and urgent care. This trusted experience, and the compassion accompanying our medical services, assure patients they’re in the very best hands.
Growing up on a cattle farm in Tennessee, Dr. Nason learned the value of hard work early on – a lesson that he applied to his studies at the University of Mississippi. Dr. Nason graduated with a BA in Biology, Chemistry, and English before attending East Tennessee State University for medical school, where he served as Vice President of his class.
Dr. Nason then completed a residency in emergency medicine at Louisiana State University and was selected as a United States representative at the International College of Emergency Physicians in Sydney, Australia. This prestigious opportunity fueled his passion for medicine, and it’s this passion that drives him to provide top-quality medical services today.
Dr. Nason is currently board certified by the American Board of Emergency Medicine. He is also a certified Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration medical examiner. He holds active medical licenses in multiple states and is accredited by ACLS, ATLS, BLS, and PALS.
In his free time, Dr. Nason enjoys spending time with his three children, Beau, Cooper, and Sadie. His hobbies include fishing, wakeboarding, and reading.
The same compassion Dr. Nason offers to his loved ones he delivers to his patients. His medical professionals and staff share a passion for people and their well-being. His healthcare team truly cares. That sets NasonCare apart: A team driven to put patients first, raise the standard of care, perfect the art of compassion, and deliver a relationship-focused approach to healthcare.
