He began his practice in Dickson County, Tennessee, in August 2008, which is housed in HCA’s Horizon Medical Center in Dickson. In his first two weeks on the job, Cole’s average patient load was 11 patients a day. His service area includes counties such as Hickman, Houston and Humphreys.
“As an OB/Gyn, we are in a sense at the beginnings of life, at that intense personal moment when a woman gives all of herself to her lineage and to the next generation with the birth of her child.” Cole said.
