Dr. R.A. Breedlove

Dr. Robert Allan Breedlove grew up in Stillwater after moving there from Mineral Wells, Texas, in 1953. He attended Stillwater Public Schools before going on to Oklahoma State University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in news-editorial journalism in 1969. While at OSU, he wrote a sports column for the Daily O’Collegian and hosted an evening sports radio show.

He earned his medical degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine in 1974. Following medical school, he completed a rotating internship at Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City from 1974 to 1975, including three months working alongside plastic surgeons.

Dr. Breedlove completed two years of dermatology residency training at the Lloyd Noland Foundation in Fairfield, Alabama, before finishing his final year at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis. He completed his dermatology training in July 1978, passed his board certification exam later that year, and has been an active member of the American Academy of Dermatology since 1978.

Before returning home to Stillwater, Dr. Breedlove opened his first solo dermatology practice in Chula Vista, California, where he practiced from 1978 to 1981. He and his wife Debbie then returned to Stillwater and opened Stillwater Skin & Cancer Medical Clinic, Inc. in October 1981.

In addition to caring for patients, Dr. Breedlove has served on the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine admissions board since 2000, helping select and mentor future physicians for more than 25 years.
