A graduate of University of Illinois, Urbana, where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree, Dr. Fletcher went on to earn his medical degree at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine, Springfield, IL. He completed medical internships at University of California-Irvine, Orange, CA, and Veterans Administration Hospital, Long Beach, CA.

Dr. Fletcher says, “I listen carefully to patients and recommend treatment relative to that particular patient. I treat my patients they way I would want to be treated. Through the years, he says he has learned that patients appreciate honest and sincerity. Dr. Fletcher hopes that above all else, his patients know he genuinely cares about them.
