A brief biography for
Dr. Steve Guy
ACE Medical Missions Director
medicalmissions@acexperience.org
Dr. Guy is native of the Dayton, Ohio area and has lived there his
entire life except for his time as a medical student at The Ohio State
University in Columbus. He and his wife Chris were married in 1976 just
before starting medical school. Chris and Dr. Guy have worked together
from the beginning of their marriage to build family and serve others.
Before starting a family they led their
church youth group. They now have five sons and three daughters who have
been the focus of their lives. The four oldest are in college or
professional school and four younger ones are still at home. They also
have worked together in practice for over 20 years, at first building a
private practice in Obstetrics and Gynecology and over the past few
years incorporating their practice into the University Women’s Health
Center with Wright State University.
Dr. Guy is now involved full time in the teaching of medical students
and residents as well as continuing to be active in private practice. He
is an Assistant Professor in the Wright State University Department of
Obstetrics and Gynecology. He serves as the Director of Gynecology,
Medical Director of Family Beginnings Birth Center, and the Medical
Director of University Women’s Health Center.
His specialty interests include
supporting natural childbirth, gynecologic surgery, ultrasound and a
holistic approach to healing. Dr. Guy and his practice partners support
the medical care and supervise the clinics that serve indigent women and
their families in the Dayton area. They also provide the prenatal care
for women who have chosen life over abortion from a crisis pregnancy
center.
Chris and Dr. Guy have been actively involved in their church throughout
their lives. Their faith has grown and matured as they have faced the
trials and tribulations of raising eight children as well as dealing
with the pain and suffering of others in their practice. They have had
to grow through Chris’ personal battle with cancer. This journey has
been the single most important event that has helped them assess their
priorities and truly open their life to God’s leading.
Service and mentoring have led to
spiritual growth and fulfillment for Dr. Guy and his family through
mission projects sponsored by their church. A dream of serving in
international medical missions became a reality in 2004 when Dr. Guy was
invited by a friend to accompany them on a mission trip to Jamaica. Dr.
Guy and his daughter were able to meet and serve the Jamaicans and a
seed was planted to continue service and ministry in this area.
Dr. Guy was asked to serve as the ACE
Medical Missions Director and has had the pleasure of meeting and
working with servants from all over the United States as well as
developing relationships with the medical community in Jamaica.
