Dr. Jason Lofton

Dr. Jason Lofton has been practicing family medicine in De Queen, Arkansas for 16 years.  He is a local medical director with Aledade ACO and has been participating in the Arkansas Behavioral Health Integration Network for 2 years.  He has served as the county health officer for Sevier County for the past decade and helped lead Sevier County through the COVID crisis by having weekly meetings with various leaders in the county.  He is heavily involved in his local community having just finished serving 4 years on the city council.  He teaches anatomy at Legacy Academy, serves as the track coach, and is also an assistant girls’ basketball. He is involved with a local community development non-profit and has led the way in getting a multi-use trail system started at De Queen Lake.  Dr. Lofton also hosts a yearly free health fair in the county which typically serves 200-300 people.  When not working he enjoys spending time with his wife and 4 children, going to church, and cycling as much as he possibly can.

Dr. Lofton has been involved with the Arkansas Behavioral Health Integration Network (ABHIN) for the past 2 years.  Starting in the fall of 2022, his clinic was chosen to take part in a new pilot program that places an MSW student in the clinic 3 days a week.  Dr. Lofton found this to be very helpful and hopes to be able to hire a full-time counselor in the near future.
