ABOUT THE AUTHOR


James G. Lenhart, MD, FAAFP, MPH


One of America’s most accomplished family physicians, James Lenhart has served as a practicing physician and medical educator for over three decades. Currently active in the practice of medicine and healthcare administration, he also hosts Dr. Jim’s Healthline Today on KSNV television Las Vegas, which reaches inter-mountain markets of over 3 million viewers.


Driven by a passion to deliver on his message of health as a human right, Lenhart began writing his debut novel Conversations for Paco in 2007. Although a work of fiction, Conversations for Paco is based on fact and inspired by true stories and real life characters gathered from over 30 years of patient care, health care experiences and academic medical center rituals. Two parts social criticism, one part medical suspense, Conversations for Paco follows the story of Paco and his wife, Sarita as they desperately seek answers to Paco’s perplexing illness.


Born and raised in Helena, Montana, Dr. Lenhart received his early education from the University of Montana. He graduated from the University of New Mexico School of Medicine, took residency in Family Medicine at Brown University, and completed an academic medicine fellowship at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. Most recently he earned a Master’s of Public Health from the University of Liverpool, England where he researched the social determinants of health and health policy. He board certified in family medicine in 1979 and sports medicine in 1999.


Lenhart holds the distinction of Fellow in the American Academy of Family Physicians and in 2007 was named Nevada’s outstanding family doctor. In addition to many years in the private practice of medicine, Lenhart has held academic positions as professor of family medicine at the University of Nevada and the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. He served as vice chancellor for Health Sciences in the Nevada System of Higher Education from 2007-2009. For his contributions to the advancement of Hispanic cultures, Dr. Lenhart was selected to The Latino American Who’s Who in 2011.


Lenhart is married to his beloved wife, Nancy, and is the father of two children.
