Regional Family Health Welcomes Dr. Samantha Fitzgerald

March 25, 2026 in Family Practice, News, OB

Regional Medical Center (RMC) and Regional Family Health (RFH) are pleased to announce the addition of Samantha Fitzgerald, MD, to the team starting April 1, 2026. Dr. Fitzgerald will serve patients at both the Manchester (Team II) and Hopkinton locations, specializing in Family Practice and Obstetrics.

A native of Springville, Iowa, Dr. Fitzgerald returns to her roots to provide comprehensive care to rural communities. “I grew up in a rural community nearby, so I have experienced the challenges and variety that rural healthcare can provide,” shared Dr. Fitzgerald. “Early in my training, I was paired with a mentor here at RMC. Through those rotations, I knew this would be a great fit and would align perfectly with my professional goals.” 

In 2022, Dr. Fitzgerald graduated from the University of Iowa. She then completed her residency in 2025 at the Sioux Falls Family Medicine Residency Program in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Her arrival brings a significant boost to RMC’s obstetric services, as she possesses specialized training to perform c-sections, further closing care gaps in local obstetric services.

Outside of practicing medicine, Dr. Fitzgerald is a retired collegiate swimmer and an avid athlete who has participated in triathlons and multiple RAGBRAI trips. She and her husband, Ryan, enjoy spending time with their two dogs, Nova and Loki. She also enjoys reading, gaming and traveling to visit her extended family in Malaysia and Singapore. 

Dr. Samantha Fitzgerald is now accepting new patients. To schedule an appointment or to learn more about the services offered at RFH, please visit regmedctr.org/rfh or call/text 563-927-7777.
