Josh Umbehr, MD

"I was born and raised in Alma, Kansas where I met my high school sweetheart, Lisa, while playing football at Manhattan High School and followed her to Kansas State University. While there, I majored in human nutritional sciences with a minor in biology. I also did extensive research on the effects of vitamin A on lung cancer. I then graduated from The University of Kansas School of Medicine and completed my family medicine residency at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita. After completing training and becoming a board certified Family Physician, I opened Atlas MD, a practice that I had been dreaming about for nearly a decade. Atlas MD represents my ideal medical practice where I’m able to shrug off the burdens and restrictions of government and insurance regulation so I can focus solely on my patients and their needs. Lisa and I have three gorgeous children who keep us busy — Katelyn, Paige and Cole. Katelyn, our eldest, has Down Syndrome and we’re blessed to have her in our lives. We’ve happily made supporting the Down Syndrome Society of Wichita a focus of ours and the clinic’s."

"If you miss the good old days where your doctor did house calls and treated you like a respected individual, you’ll be thrilled to join Atlas MD. We view the patient-physician relationship as being made up of a team of equals with a single focus to help you reach your healthcare goals. We have noble ambitions at Atlas MD, all of which revolve around giving you the most individualized care imaginable. We’re diligently working to change the face of family medicine to one that is uniquely focused on the patient. We desire to see fewer patients in the name of high-end medical care. We believe the best medical treatment comes from one-on-one interaction, so we’re eliminating the middle man and inviting you into our family."
