Investigator Experience

Dr. Derek Lewis board certified Family Medicine Physician specializing in OB/GYN founded Arkansas Primary Care Clinics, PA over 25 years ago. Today, the clinic is one of the largest private family practices in central Arkansas with two locations. Dr. Lewis and staff have done many studies in the area of diabetes, gout, female health, hypertension and many others over the last 15 years.

Dr. Lewis is the principal investigator, is on site full time at our Little Rock location and Dr. Rose Shaw Bullock our sub-principal investigator is on site at the North Little Rock location. This is because our offices house both; our research site and family medicine practices.
