LONOKE, Ark. – Baptist Health Family Clinic-Lonoke is now providing an extensive range of medical services for the entire family at 757 SE Front St. in Lonoke.
Les Anderson, MD; Elton Cleveland, MD; and Alexis Van Houten, APRN, as well as residents of Baptist Health-University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Medical Education Program make up the clinic’s team of providers.
Dr. Anderson, a native of Lonoke, has practiced medicine for nearly 50 years in the area.
