Hugh J Prentice, DO

I chose a career in family medicine for the special relationships that are made in primary care. As a family medicine provider, I build trust, learn the goals of each patient and grow with them whether they are at birth or toward the end of life. I enjoy caring for patients of all ages. I had a great role model who showed me the importance of these long lasting, meaningful relationships from a young age. Luckily, he is also part of the St. Luke’s family in New Jersey.
I earned my medical degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. I completed my residency at Tower Health Reading Hospital and worked in Reading for a year after graduating. I moved back into the Easton area after being pulled back toward my hometown right over the border in New Jersey. I am excited to start a new chapter at St. Luke’s Forks Family Medicine. I am currently board certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Family Physicians.
Outside the office, I love spending time with my wife, …Emily and with family. I also have several hobbies including woodworking, wood burning, wood carving and cycling.
