Donald A. Maynard, MD, FACS
Dr. Maynard grew up on St. Maarten, a small island in the Caribbean that is half French and half Dutch. In some respects it is very similar to Georgia, a community where everyone knows and cares for each other. Dr. Maynard worked for the family owned business from a very young age. This helped him to develop discipline, a strong work ethic, and a solid moral and ethical foundation.
After passing on an opportunity in 1989 to play for the Atlanta Braves, Dr. Maynard returned to his first love of medicine and pursued a career in General Surgery.
