Tom Heston MD is Board Certified in Family Medicine and Nuclear Medicine. He earned his MD at St. Louis University and completed post-grad training at Duke, Oregon Health Sciences, University of Washington, and Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Heston pioneered molecular imaging in north Idaho, establishing the first PET program in the region, performing the first PET cardiac scan in the region, the first PET brain scan, the first PET/CT (software) fused imaging, and the first PET bone scan. In recognition of his training and contributions to nuclear medicine, Heston has been received the Fellowship award from both the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and the American College of Nuclear Medicine.
Heston has setup medical imaging centers throughout the Pacific Northwest in rural settings that previously had no molecular imaging or no access to a physician specifically trained and Board Certified in Nuclear Medicine. He also set up the initial cardiac perfusion PET/CT program in the United Arab Emirates while a faculty member at Johns Hopkins University.
He is an active educator, serving on the faculty at Johns Hopkins University and in addition has taught medicine in the Caribbean since 2000. In 2010, he setup a PET/CT center in the United Arab Emirates for Johns Hopkins International, where he was the medical director for the first ever PET/CT facility at the country's primary cancer diagnosis and treatment hospital (Tawam Hospital in Al Ain). During his time working with the University of Health Sciences Antigua, he gave the Commencement Address for the first ever graduating class, world-wide, undergoing an Internet based basic sciences program. He continues to actively teach medical students, and in 2007 started teaching biostatistics, epidemiology, and bioethics at the International American University Medical College on St. Lucia, where he currently serves (as of 2011) as a full Professor (visiting).
As a Family Physician, he has practiced the full range of family medicine including obstetrics in rural north Idaho at Mountain Health Care. His research, education, and academic contributions to the specialty resulted in him receiving the Fellowship recognition from the American Academy of Family Physicians. Starting in 2005, he setup the nuclear medicine program at the Family Care Network, becoming the first practicing physician in the Bellingham, Washington community to be specialty trained and Board Certified in Nuclear Medicine.
With training at some of the top medical institutions in the world, including Johns Hopkins Hospital, Duke University, and the University of Washington, he continues to promote optimal health through preventive medicine and the early diagnosis of treatable disease.
