Jonathan Bigler, PA-C
As a PA-C, Jon Bigler brings his rural health experience to Satanta to continue to serve the patients of Southwest Kansas. Jon came to medicine later in life. Jon received his undergraduate degree from the University of Kansas in 1986. While at KU, Jon was a varsity yell leader and is still one of the Jayhawk basketball team’s biggest fans.
After graduating, Jon worked as a biology teacher and wrestling coach for 16 years. However, he always wanted to return to his roots. He grew up in Garden City, KS, where his father was a surgeon. Jon made the dramatic choice to get his master's degree in 2006 from Wichita State University. From here, he was able to pursue his love of medicine. He worked in Ashland, KS for 10 years, often acting as the sole provider in the clinic, hospital, and long-term care facility.
Jon and his wife, Lori, a high school English teacher and tennis coach, moved to Meade, KS in 2016, where he served primarily at the Plains Clinic. For Jon, it was like coming home.
Now, Jon uses his many years of experience, both in the classroom and in the healthcare industry, to provide personalized care for his patients. His work has been spotlighted in the KUMC’s publication “Kansas Connections,” and he has served on KU’s Rural Health symposium panel throughout the years.
Jon and Lori have three grown daughters. Amanda is a professor of English in France, Erin is in cyber security in Austin, TX, and Elyse followed in her father’s footsteps and became a PA-C in Southwest Kansas. Jon’s favorite pastime, besides following his favorite basketball team, is rock and fossil hunting. His greatest find to date is a mastodon skeleton that he and his daughter discovered in 2008. Jon is excited to be a part of the medical team in Satanta and looks forward to building the relationships that he enjoys so much.
