Hi, I’m Dr. Rice.
I am a trauma and general surgeon in Arkansas and Texas. I am double board certified in general surgery and trauma-surgical critical care with a special focus in robotic surgery.
I’m also certified in midlife women’s healthcare, including menopause and the menopause transition.
My goal is to provide education and healing to the Hot Springs and greater communities through health and wellness from the perspective and expertise of a Trauma-trained general surgeon who is also a midlife women's menopause and wellness physician.
Mandy’s Passion Projects
Client Experiences
“Would highly recommend Dr. Mandy Rice. After a year of pain and multiple doctors not being able to diagnose me, she was able to diagnose my condition. She is working with me to achieve a pain free life! Dr. Rice takes time to explain things clearly, I never feel rushed. Super nice, caring, and compassionate. I'm grateful to have her as my doctor.”
—Carol
“Dr. Rice gave me confidence in a time of my life when I truly felt I was losing my mind. Turns out it just my hormones and it is natural. She listened and did not judge, considered all of my diagnoses and got a plan together specifically for me. Highly recommend.”
—Tiffany
