Pana Community Hospital is pleased to announce the addition of Allison Beyers, FNP, to its Specialty Clinic. Allison will work alongside Dr. Andrew Ott, DPM, FACFAS, expanding access to high-quality foot and ankle care for patients throughout the surrounding communities.

 

As a Family Nurse Practitioner specializing in podiatry, Allison provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment for a wide range of foot and ankle conditions. She is committed to helping patients relieve pain, improve mobility, and maintain active, healthy lifestyles through personalized, compassionate care.

A graduate of Pana High School, Allison has been serving patients in healthcare since 2005. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) and began her career at Decatur Memorial Hospital, where she cared for patients on the medical-surgical, neurology, and oncology units. She later spent 10 years at Cancer Care in Decatur, gaining valuable experience caring for patients with complex healthcare needs.

 

In 2024, Allison earned her Master of Science in Nursing as a Family Nurse Practitioner from Walden University. Returning to serve the community where she grew up is especially meaningful, and she is proud to provide specialized foot and ankle care.

 

"We're excited to welcome Allison to our specialty care team," said Amanda Lees, Director of Physician Services at Pana Community Hospital. "Her extensive nursing background, advanced training, and dedication to compassionate patient care make her an outstanding addition to our specialty services. Allison's addition allows us to expand access to foot and ankle care and better serve the needs of our patients throughout the communities we serve."

 

Allison and Dr. Ott see patients at Pana Community Hospital and outlying clinic locations, making specialized podiatry care more convenient for patients across the area.

 

New patients are now being accepted. To schedule an appointment or learn more about podiatry services at Pana Community Hospital, call 217-562-6238.
