Dr. Brad and Naomi Quist have been working as medical missionaries in Ecuador, South America and in Central Asia for the last 28 years. Early on, Brad’s interest turned to teaching family medicine residents. In time, he became director of the mission’s family medicine residency in Quito, Ecuador, before he and Naomi transitioned to a new field in Central Asia. Brad’s prior experience served him well in developing relationships with Central Asian universities for the purpose of developing family medicine training programs. Through it all, Brad and Naomi’s passion has been to know Christ and to make Him known. Whether it has been praying with patients or conducting Bible studies with family medicine residents, Brad and Naomi have always sought to encourage everyone that they worked with to take the next step in their walk with Jesus Christ.
