New Physician Assistant Comes to KHS A new physician assistant and her family have chosen Kimball for their new home. Lisa Smith-Schohl, PA-C, will begin seeing patients at Kimball Health Services in January 2010, joining fellow PAs Joann Bourlier-Childress and Gayle Perkins and doctors Richard Jay, DO and Jim Plate, MD. A native of suburban Chicago, Schohl, (pronounced “shoal”), says she’s anxious to get started with building relationships with patients and staff at the Kimball hospital and clinic. After growing up in Milwaukee, studying medicine near Chicago and practicing in a nearby suburban medical center for 6 ˝ years, Schohl says she’s ready for the change of pace Kimball offers and the chance to get to know the patients she’ll serve. She has a special interest in pediatrics and sports medicine. It follows that she and her husband David are interested in running, bike riding, hiking and weight lifting, among other sports. Their new home in Kimball will also be a pleasant change for David, who plans to do some independent contract marketing work for Regional West Medical Center in Scottsbluff. He’ll be leaving a daily commute of about five hours a day in Wisconsin for a chance to spend more time at home with the couple’s sons, Kaden (3) and Ben (2).
