Dr. Tom Langston
Doctor
I was born in Boone County Hospital (now NARMC) in 1962, graduated with honors at HHS (’80), honor societies at University of Arkansas (’83), and University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (’87) in Little Rock. After starting residency in 1987 at Area Health Education Center – Fayetteville (extension of UAMS), I joined Dr. Bob Langston (dad) part time in 1988 and then full time in 1990.
I married Cindy in 1983 and we have 3 children and their families. For more information on them, ask me in person. I like to hike, garden, travel and attend Razorback athletic events.
I’ve been practicing since 2018 in my current location. I’ve been in practice in Harrison full time since 1990. My practice is less stressful than most and has more margin in my schedule for grandchildren, slowing down, and travel. I had planned to retire but didn’t feel I could leave all my long-term patients in a lurch, so I decided to try a solo practice with some new technologies – trying to meet the significant needs of seniors while still being able to see patients that have acute illnesses and injuries. Dr James Harter has agreed to come work with me beginning June 2027 in anticipation of replacing me. I will transition from mentor to consultant to make sure he is comfortable and ready to continue our vision of one on one personalized care. Managing long term chronic illnesses (associated with aging) well is still the challenge of the future.
