Message from the director

Hello, My name is Bradley Reed. I have deep roots in Mayes County, where I was born and raised. In 1999, I graduated From Locust Grove High School. In 2008, I married my wife, Tiffany, she was also born and raised in Mayes County. Her father served as a dedicated member of the Salina Fire Department for over two decades. Today, we are blessed with a beautiful family of our own, consisting of two wonderful daughters, and an amazing son, all of whom are enrolled in Locust Grove Schools.

My journey in the field of Emergency Medicine began in 2006 when I selflessly volunteered as a firefighter with Locust Grove Fire. Driven by a burning passion to help others, I pursued further education, obtaining licenses as an EMT Basic, EMT Intermediate, and ultimately, an RN from Rogers State University. My career in Emergency Medicine officially commenced in 2008 at MESTA.

Throughout the years, I have had the privilege of working with esteemed healthcare institutions such as Northeastern Health Systems, W.W. Hastings Hospital, Northwest Health in Arkansas, Tulsa Life Flight, and most recently Hillcrest Medical Center. Yet, despite these diverse experiences, Mayes County has always been my home. It is where I reside alongside my beloved family, and as such, the quality of care we provide to our community is of the utmost importance to me.

In conclusion, I am Bradley Reed, a devoted healthcare professional who is deeply committed to the well-being of Mayes County. With my knowledge, experience, and unwavering dedication, I strive for MESTA to deliver exceptional care to our community, for it is not just a duty, but a personal mission close to my heart.
