"Shirley Ann Williams, M.D., was born in Peoria, Ill. Raised in a family with 12 children, she received her B.S. in Biology from Peoria's Bradley University, where she graduated cum laude.

While there, she also served as assistant professor in the Department of Medicine at the Texas A&M University College of Medicine. These experiences inspired Williams to expand her skills by pursuing an additional fellowship in invasive cardiology at Hahnemann University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pa., in 1990.
