Dr. Steve Haskett has helped thousands of little ones in the Kearney region get their boo-boos fixed, calm anxious new parents, and give comfort and care throughout their childhood. Because he’s seen quite often wearing a bow-tie and a smile, Dr. Haskett appears to be an entertainer at heart. Dr. Haskett studied at Creighton University and University of Oklahoma College of Medicine, and trained at Children’s Hospital in Omaha. He and his wife Amy are parents to Madilyn, Olivia, Samuel and Charlotte. He says everyone in his family participates in dance lessons so he wants to step up and not be the slacker.
