This month, we are delighted to highlight the remarkable journey of Tyler King, DO, as our DO to Know. Dr. King has recently completed his family medicine residency at Laredo Medical Center, while also serving as a council member for district six in Laredo, Texas. Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, Dr. King’s passion for medicine was sparked by his grandfather, while his interest in politics was inspired by his grandmother. Today he stands as a unique blend of their influences.
