Holly Weeks, DO

Hi!  I’m Holly Weeks, and my hometown of Forsyth, Missouri, is located just about 45 minutes south of Springfield! My wonderful parents, Doctors Leonard and J. Rachelle Bridges, M.D., raised my two younger brothers and me in the ground-level apartment of my parents’ rural health clinic in Forsyth, so I quite literally grew up in medicine. For the entirety of my childhood education, I was blessed to be enrolled in Riverview Bible Baptist Christian School, which is also where I met my husband, Benjamin Weeks, who has been my constant support throughout this medical journey and in life. I obtained my undergraduate degree from Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri, and I completed medical school at Kansas City University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Joplin, Missouri. 

Family medicine has always been close to my heart, especially in the areas of preventative medicine and women’s health. When I started working in my family’s clinic as a teenager, I began building patient relationships that have continued to this day. After residency, I hope to return to the greater Branson area to practice alongside my parents, focusing on providing compassionate, comprehensive healthcare through the lens of an osteopathic physician to my own medically underserved communities back home. 

Outside of medicine, I enjoy leading worship at my home church/synagogue, The Tabernacle, in Branson, horseback riding with my little Lemon girl (golden palomino Fox Trotter mare), spending time with my husband and our two puppy dogs, Thor and Sasha (chi-beag and husky respectively), and playing with my many nieces and nephews, all of whom I love dearly.
