Dr. John R. Hereford
Overview
After moving to this area in 1984 to practice, I still find myself in Kingsport after all these years. I met my wife here and am still close in proximity to my hometown of Prestonsburg, Kentucky. After living in big cities such as Tampa, Louisville, Denver and Houston, I discovered that I appreciate the small town atmosphere. I also enjoy the fact that people here are very similar in temperament to people where I grew up in eastern Kentucky. We had friends who were doctors in my hometown, and I always admired and wanted to emulate them. I traveled quite a bit for my medical training, attending medical school at the University of Louisville in Kentucky, completing an internship at the University of South Florida in Tampa and a residency at the University of Texas in Houston. I have always liked dealing with patients and people, and I try to listen and develop plans that people are comfortable with. Obstetrics is a tough time for women, and physicians need to listen. Our group is composed of physicians who get along and treat our patients well. We are sympathetic and aim for a good outcome during a woman’s pregnancy. We achieve this goal by being well-versed in the latest surgical techniques, which in turn allows for shorter hospital stays. I believe Mountain States Medical Group OB/GYN – Kingsport has some of the most highly-skilled surgeons in this area, and I am happy for my wife or daughter to go to this practice. Away from the work, I relax by exercising. My knees will not allow me to run anymore, but I enjoy the treadmill and spin classes. You can also find me on the slopes in the wintertime.

State Of Franklin OB/GYN Specialists
For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to care for those in need. My childhood experience in helping care for a terminally ill grandparent inspired me to make an impact in healthcare. This early motivation propelled me through the many steps of training, including graduating from Mercer University School of Medicine as a top national scholar and completing residency at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC, with top surgical honors. I received my OB/GYN certification in 2009. Over this time, I have continually devoted myself to providing knowledgeable, compassionate and cutting-edge care. As a husband, father and member of the local Christian community, I understand how the different facets of life affect our health. My ambition is to recognize not only the physical but also the emotional, psychological and spiritual needs of women from all walks of life. In obstetrics, my interests include fertility evaluation, prenatal counseling and low- and high-risk pregnancies. As for gynecology, my expertise includes minimally invasive surgeries such as robotics, single incision laparoscopy, as well as vaginal prolapse repair.
