Misty Todd, MD, a family medicine physician at Bothwell Regional Health Center, has been appointed to the Missouri Academy of Family Physicians (MAFP) Board of Directors.

Dr. Todd will serve a one-year term expiring in 2027. MAFP recently announced a streamlined board structure designed to support focused governance and timely decision-making for the organization and its members statewide.
