About Dr. McKown
Thanks to the encouragement of a college advisor, Rebecca McKown, MD, considered medical school when choosing her career path.
She earned her Bachelor of Arts degree at Texas Tech University in Microbiology/Spanish. Then she continued at Texas Tech, going on to earn her medical degree from the university’s Health Sciences Center. Dr. McKown then completed her internship/residency at Louisiana State University Medical Center – Shreveport.
Of her specialty of obstetrics/gynecology Dr. McKown says, “I educate women about their health and share decision making regarding their health care, and provide services to facilitate those decisions.”
In her work with patients, she has learned from them the importance of listening. From her, Dr. McKown hopes her patients know this – “That I am honest and trustworthy.”
Dr. McKown is board certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
