A Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and enthusiast of all things outdoors, Kirt Larson cares for patients of all ages. Kirt received his nursing degree from Brigham Young University and excelled as a trauma nurse in the emergency room for 14 years before returning to BYU for his Master’s degree in Family Practice. In 1999, Kirt opened the doors to Step Mountain Medical and has enjoyed building relationships with his many patients who describe him as kind and fun. His compassionate staff completes the warmth and caring concern that his patients have come to rely on. Kirt combines his more than 30 years of professional practice with his personal insight and experience from raising his five daughters and one son with his wife, Sandra.

In his spare time, Kirt enjoys gardening (especially tomato plants) and adding more canoes to his collection (12 at the moment). He spends much of his time mentoring scouts (he recently received the Talon Award for his service) and has a small mass of ice fishing poles that he and the scouts use at lakes all over Utah. Metal-detecting, camping, snowmobiling, boating, and raising pigs with his son could keep him talking for hours. If you ask him, he will tell you his favorite color is camouflage, and will most likely be found in camo when not wearing his scrubs. Kirt invites you to “Step to a healthier life” by joining the family of Step Mountain Medical.

Jo Cluny graduated with her nursing degree from the U of U and joined the pediatric unit at St. Mark’s hospital, where she enjoyed working with young patients and their families. She was later invited to join Labor and Delivery at St. Mark’s and found an exciting new experience awaiting her. This was the beginning of her extensive experience in women’s health, including Labor and Delivery, teaching prenatal classes, and assisting in C-sections and other female surgeries. After several years, Jo decided she wanted to continue her learning by completing her Masters Degree at BYU and joining a group of OBGYNs who needed someone with her understanding of women’s health. She also taught OBGYN nursing care at Westminster College for many years, and is very excited to be part of the Step Mountain Medical team.

In her free time, Jo enjoys going for long walks, reading, and cooking. She can talk about sewing and quilting all day long and loves to help friends by machine quilting for them. Jo is a world traveler. While living in New Zealand as a teenager, she learned to surf, make Polynesian arts and crafts, and do native dances and poi balls. Since then, she has also traveled to France, England, and Israel. She loves meeting new people and seeing new places
