He lives with his wife, Janelle of 26 years and their children on a ranch in the Fort Klamath region. They have 6 children and are just waiting for grandchildren at this point. He enjoys being active in his local Church body, hunting, hiking and working on his Dexter cow ranch, getting to live off the land. He is passionate about world missions and making Christ known to the nations. Jon is looking forward to expanding his practice model in this Direct Primary Clinic. Getting to spend more time with patients and have less regulations will allow for better diagnostic capabilities, expand preventative care, and open up natural treatment options that have not been available until now. Jon also encourages his patients to take an active role in their healthcare and that of their families. He looks forward to taking care of each person as an individual and hopefully continues this great trend in medicine known as Direct Primary Care.
