While serving two terms in office, she continued to practice medicine in emergency departments in Lake Havasu City and Kingman, Arizona. During her three years serving in the state legislature, Dr. Ward established a proven track record of passing legislation that supported small businesses, preserved the Second Amendment, decreased the size of government, fought the opioid crisis, protected vulnerable Arizona students, and increased school choice.
