We are excited to welcome Dr. Frederick (Fred) Stone, Jr. to Louisiana as Program Director of the LSU Rural Family Medicine Residency Program at Our Lady of the Angels Hospital.

We asked Dr. Stone to tell us about how he came to Louisiana. He stated, “I grew up in the Los Angeles Area (the other LA) and lived there through my undergraduate college career at UCLA. I am an only child, so foot-loose and fancy-free. I then began moving around over the years, with Louisiana being the tenth state in which I have lived.
