When he was just nine years old, he attended an Honors Day ceremony given for the beloved "country doctor" who helped his family and community, and he knew then and there that he was called to that same profession. Raised with a superb work ethic and high standards instilled in him by his steadfast, dedicated father and loving, brilliant mother, Robert broke away from the family farm to pursue his dream. He began his practice in 1964 in the Appalachian foothills as Kentucky's youngest practicing physician. After a few years, he returned home to follow in the footsteps of his inspiration, Dr. Kincheloe, also a native of Breckenridge County, Kentucky.
