                  New Pediatrician Joins the Medical Staff at Forrest City Medical Center




                  Forrest City, AR, March 2, 2018 – Pediatrician Christine Hartford, M.D., has joined the medical staff of Forrest City Medical Center.  

                  Dr. Hartford has lived in the Memphis area for the past nine years, coming to the Mid-South from Chicago, Illinois, where she served in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Chicago. She moved to this area in 2009 to accept a position at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis.

                  Dr. Hartford graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago.  She completed residency in Pediatrics at Hasbro Children’s Hospital at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. Dr. Hart ford went on to complete a fellowship in Pediatric Hematology-Oncology at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, and a fellowship in Clinical Pharmacology and Pharmacogenomics at the University of Chicago in Chicago, Illinois.

                  Dr. Hartford will serve as the Pediatrician at East Arkansas Medical Group, the clinic group owned and operated by Forrest City Medical Center. Additionally, Dr. Hartford serves as Pediatrician at Forrest City Medical Center, caring for pediatric patients admitted to the hospital and newborns in FCMC’s Women’s Center. Upon the clinic’s opening, which is anticipated in mid-April, Dr. Hartford will be accepting new patients at the Pediatric clinic of East Arkansas Medical Group, at 904 Holiday Drive, Suite 402, the clinic office complex adjacent to Forrest City Medical Center’s Emergency Room parking area. 

                  Dr. Hartford and her husband Ron, also a Pediatrician, have two sons, ages 15 and 12. In her spare time, she enjoys exercising, cooking, and attending her sons’ music and sporting events.  

                  “We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Hartford to our medical staff,” says Kevin Decker, CEO at Forrest City Medical Center. “We are excited to add her knowledge and experience in pediatric care to our organization as we continue to strive to meet the healthcare needs of our children in eastern Arkansas.”

                  Dr. Hartford will maintain office hours Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, once the clinic opens next month. She will be joined in her practice and in the hospital by Katie Rohrer, APN, and Erin Caldwell, APN.
