Education: Logan Magnolia High School, 1969; Grinnell College and University of Iowa; MD degree from University of Rochester, School of Medicine and Dentistry, 1980; orthopaedic surgery residency; U.S. Navy, 1987; Louis A.

Work history: I began working at age 12 at Dusty and Dewey's Grocery in Logan, Ia., for 50 cents an hour. After college I sold auto parts for three years at Fochtman Motor Company in northern Michigan till 1975. After medical training, I served as a Navy doctor with the U.S. Marine Corps. I was in private solo practice of spinal surgery till 2009. In the last 5 years, I have been a private contractor practicing orthopaedics at a critical-access hospital in an underserved area of Iowa.
Political experience: My best qualification is that I am not a professional politician. When my husband was stationed in Arizona, I was in private practice and was elected chief of staff at Yuma Regional Medical Center, a 250-bed hospital with 220 physicians. I am past president of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, and a national speaker on the perils of government-run health care.
Civic involvement: When I was in full-time practice, I worked 100-hour weeks caring for all comers in the emergency room. My charity was done at work. Now, I volunteer time to teach ethical medicine to today's medical students and have served on the Board of the Arizona Medical Association.
Family: I was married 30 years to a USMC officer, Ross Hieb. My son Nathan is 25 and a senior medical student at Creighton University. My son Mason is 21 and a junior electrical engineering student at Tulsa University.
Religious affiliation: Was raised in the Christian Church, not currently a member of a particular congregation.
