Norman physician Kelley Lobb, MD has joined the Norman Regional Hospital Authority Board, the governing board of Norman Regional Health System. Dr. Lobb was selected by the mayor of the City of Norman, who appoints citizens to the health system’s board.
“When I was asked whether I would be interested in serving on the board for Norman Regional Hospital, I was honored and excited. Patients will always benefit when the quality of care that we provide them is prioritized above profit,” Dr. Lobb said. “I am excited to be a part of advocating to preserve patient focused care for the Norman community.”
Dr. Lobb is a physician at Primary Health Partners, 900 N. Porter Avenue, Suite 201 in Norman. She has been practicing medicine in the community for 13 years. She attended the University of Oklahoma and completed medical school at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center.
Dr. Lobb initially joined the medical field to pursue forensic pathology, but during her rotations, fell in love with the patient interactions and relationships of family medicine.
“I am passionate about high quality patient centered care and meaningful relationships with my patients. Primary care is a calling, and I feel lucky to get to do my job every day,” Dr. Lobb said.
Dr. Lobb is married to anesthesiologist Quentin Lobb, MD and they have three children. Dr. Kelley Lobb also serves on the board for the Transition House Inc. and the Lester Reed Music Foundation.
When she isn’t doctoring, parenting or volunteering, Dr. Lobb is singing at the Sooner Theater or local churches! She has been singing and dancing since she was five years old. She has even performed twice at Carnegie Hall in New York City.
“If you ask me where my favorite place to sing would be, it’s right here in Norman with my friends at Sooner Theater. Singing has allowed me the opportunity to travel, meet and appreciate people from many different walks of life, and reminded me to stay centered on what is important,” Dr. Lobb said.
