PHC Clinic Staff

Cecily Huff Smith, RN, BSN - Clinic Director

"It is wonderful to be part of a community that, while being considered well-to-do, continues to embrace the mission of providing health care to the uninsured. It shows that Park City recognizes that the people who do the daily work in town - building the houses, caring for our visitors, working in our restaurants - have an important place here."

Cecily Huff Smith has a Bachelor's degree in Nursing from the Medical College of Virginia. She has worked as a surgical intensive care nurse, (read more )

Penny J. Peacock, M.D. - Tuesday Night General Medicine/Pediatrics Medical Director

"In my daytime practice as a pediatrician, many children who are covered by Medicaid are brought in by parents who neglect their own health due to lack of coverage. I am so pleased when I refer them to People's Health, and then see them come in to get care for their own medical concerns. Parents who care for themselves can better care for their children."

Dr. Penny Peacock graduated from Loyola College in Maryland with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Chemistry and was awarded summa cum laude ( read more )

Gary Sharp, M.D. - Wednesday Night

John Houchins, M.D. - Thursday Night
Chronic Illness Medical Director

"Access to basic healthcare is the right of every human being and the obligation of any society holding itself up as a paragon of liberty. Until our government embraces this principle in a large-scale concrete way, donated and privately subsidized services are the only option for many of our country's residents to restore and maintain their wellness. Besides providing this care, our clinicians and staff serve as role-models for the many current and future healthcare students who get to see the power of self-giving in action. In these ways, I deeply believe that the kind of work done at People's Health Clinic serves as nothing less than the best hope for the future of universal access health care in America."

Originally from Chicago, Dr. Houchins attended medical school at Rush Medical College there, but was drawn to Utah's powder. He completed his (read more )

Mariely Ferrer - Patient Services Coordinator

"On clinic nights, the atmosphere here is so friendly and professional. The volunteers, whether they are medical professionals or not, have such respect for our patients. And if the patient is diagnosed with a medical problem that cannot be addressed here, we do all we can to find them those services, whether it be a special blood test or surgery. Then we follow up to make sure the patient got what he or she needed. And the patients are grateful for that care."

Originally from Puerto Rico, Mariely spent years as an Obstetrics nurse in a hospital there before moving to New Jersey. At the Ambulatory ( read more )

Elizabeth Isakson - Front Desk

"Working at the reception desk, I spend each evening signing patients in, accepting their donations, translating, and making followup appointments. I hear over and over again how grateful people are; they don't know what they would do if People's Health Clinic wasn't here. I know that many of them wouldn't go anywhere to get medical care; they can't afford it, or they're afraid to visit an unknown doctor. We are so very lucky to have a clinic like this in our community."

Elizabeth Isakson joined PHC after nine years as a WIC (Women, Infants, and Children Program) instructor and (read more )
