Meet Your Sleep Physician
Dr. Joyce M. Shotwell
Born and raised in Lamesa, TX, Dr. Joyce M. Shotwell studied at Baylor University for her bachelor's degree before setting off to the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) in Galveston for her medical degree. She underwent her medical internship and residency in Internal Medical at UTMB and earned her Pulmonary and Sleep Fellowship at Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas.

When Not in the Office…
At home, Dr. Shotwell is married to her husband and loves spending time with their 7 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. Other than providing sleep medicine to patients for better rest, she has a deep interest in artistic endeavors and textile activities, such as knitting and weaving. One interesting fact about her: before going to medical school, she received a Master's degree in Church music.
