Paul Jennings, M.D. admired his family doctor growing up, and he always knew he wanted to enter the medical field -- in fact, he never considered anything else. A resident of Shawnee, Okla. for more than a decade, he has served the hospital through the positions of Chief of Staff, Chair of OB/GYN and on the Joint Operations Committee (a collaboration of SSM Health Medical Group and SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital - Shawnee), and he serves his community through being active in church and community theater. Dr. Jennings cares that his patients are doing well both in health and in life, and he always emphasizes the importance of preventive care.
