Meet the family
behind the practice.

Two physicians who built their life in Auburn, and a PA who chose this work because someone once cared for her this way. These are the people you will actually see.

Dr. Sarat Meka

Family Medicine

Sarat Meka, M.D.

Medicine runs in Dr. Meka's blood. He grew up in West Point surrounded by family in healthcare and has called Auburn home for most of his professional life. Off the clock, you will find him with his wife Dr. Powar, their son Teghan, or out riding one of his motorcycles.

Dr. Ruby Powar

Family Medicine

Ruby Powar, M.D.

From Vancouver to Auburn, Dr. Powar chose this town and these patients. She brings a warm, welcoming outlook that blends her Canadian roots with her adopted Southern home. When she is not in the office she is crafting, cooking, or with her husband and son.

Shelby Fitch, PA-C

Shelby Fitch, PA-C, MPAS

A high school accident put Shelby in the ER, where the PA who treated her changed everything. That moment of clear, compassionate care became her blueprint. She is now settled in East Alabama with her husband and two children, and she loves this work.

We are not a chain or a corporation. We are a small practice that has grown because our patients keep coming back and send their neighbors. That is the only marketing that has ever worked for us.
