Dr. Justin Voris will join SouthPointe Family Practice located at 3808 South Gary St., near Southside High School, in August. As a primary care physician, Voris will help manage and maintain the health of his patients.
“Family medicine is all encompassing. It allows me to see babies all the way to geriatrics,” said Dr. Voris. “I love what I do, and it’s a wonderful opportunity to provide medical care to the whole family.”
Voris offers a full range of services in his medical practice with an emphasis in outpatient clinical care, minor surgical procedures including permanent sterilization for men and women and other women’s health services including prenatal and obstetric care.
Research shows patients who regularly see a primary care physician or a family doctor have better management of chronic diseases and lower overall healthcare costs. For example, simple testing during a visit with your primary care physician can reveal health problems, such as high blood pressure, that may go unnoticed and lead to more serious issues later in life. Voris is accepting new patients of all ages.
Voris is a graduate of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and completed his residency at UAMS West Family Medicine. Originally from El Dorado and a Fort Smith resident since 2007, Voris became familiar with the area more than 12 years ago when he met his wife Elizabeth, a Fort Smith native, while students at Ouachita Baptist University. The couple has three children. Voris also is a member of the Fort Smith Airport Commission.
