NOTE: This is an excerpt of a story about the Rend Lake College Board as a whole. I decided to break this down and feature every board member. Today I am featuring Dr. David Asbery of Mt. Vernon. – S.D.
Appointed to the board in 2013, Dr. David Asbery, replaced Ed Cunningham who moved to Granite City to pursue a career opportunity.
“I think we’ve got the best person for the job,” Cunningham said of Asbery at the time.
Asbery was re-elected to the board for a six-year term during the April 2016 election.
His obstetrics and gynecology practice, Asbery and Associates, has two offices in Mt. Vernon and one in Nashville. According to the practice’s website, Dr. Asbery graduated from the University of Kentucky School of Medicine in 1996, then completed his residency at New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington, N.C.
A former Marine, he and his family relocated from Georgia to Illinois in 2007, and he has been providing care in Mt. Vernon and the surrounding area since.
He began his private practice through Asbery and Associates in 2010. At the time of Asbery’s appointment to the RLC Board of Trustees, his medical center boasted three doctors, a Physician’s Assistant, a Certified Nurse Midwifery and Nurse Practitioner and 15 additional staff members.
