About Us
Northwest Family Medicine was founded in 2003 by Melissa Loftis PA-C and Dr. Cary Fisher. Following Dr. Fisher's retirement, Melissa has carried on the same family centered values of our clinic. With over 25 years in family practice, Melissa has valued the relationships and friendships she has shared with her patients.
Melissa attended Oklahoma State University and The University of Central Oklahoma before entering PA School at OU Health Science Center. She earned her degree in Physician Associate Studies in 1995 and has worked in Family Practice since. Melissa is active with Oklahoma Academy of Physician's Assistants, serving numerous years in varying positions.
Melissa is married to her high school sweetheart, David, and has two boys, Matthew and Carter. She enjoys walking her dog, traveling and spending time with her family.
The legacy of the clinic's co-founder, Dr. Cary Fisher, continues through his daughter, Dr. Rebecca Faulkner.
Dr. Faulkner grew up in Tuttle, Oklahoma. She studied at Oklahoma State University before attending OU College of Medicine where she graduated in 1999. She completed her residency at Great Plains Family Practice, and at MCV-VCU in Virginia. She practiced outside of Washington DC followed by 4 years in Sterling, Colorado.
Dr. Faulkner returned to Oklahoma to be near family when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 and joined our clinic in 2008. We have been lucky to have her as a part of our practice since. Dr. Faulkner serves on the board of Leading Ladies for Healthy Babies, a group of mostly African-American religious leaders who are working to lower Oklahoma City's high African-American infant mortality rate.
Dr. Faulkner enjoys spending time with her husband and son, sport climbing, biking, vegan cooking and is an avid reader.
