James Aston, DO

Dr. Aston is board certified in Family Medicine and practices medicine with a distinctively osteopathic approach to patient care. His interest is in how a patient’s environment influences their health and wholeness. Because of his brief stint in the USAF, he has a special interest in veteran’s health, too. Following residency (in Searcy, Arkansas), Dr. Aston packed his wagon and brought his family west to Fort Worth, where he spent a year training in neuromusculoskeletal medicine. Serendipity then brought him into the world of Performing Arts Medicine, and under the tutelage of Drs. Sajid Surve, DO and Yein Lee, DO, he became the world’s first fellowship trained performing arts medicine physician. Dr. Aston trained in this subspecialty at UNTHSC and then accepted an Assistant Professor of Family Medicine at UNTHSC.

Dr. Aston discloses that he has no relevant financial relationships with any organization producing, marketing, reselling, or distributing health care goods or services consumed by, or used on, patients relative to the content of this presentation.
