Dr. James F. Coy

Dr. Jim Coy was born in Murphy, North Carolina May 8, 1948 to parents Dr. Francis M. Coy, and Dorothy E. Coy and died in Fruitland Park, Florida Feb 21, 2019. As a graduate of the University of Florida Dr. Coy was proud to be a "Gator". His medical training took him to Cebu City in the Philippines with plentiful training in general medicine and surgery, nutrition and tropical diseases. He completed post-graduate medical training at the Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City before starting his first six years of medical practice in Marysville, Kansas where he acquired intense experience in obstetrics, gynecology, pediatrics, general surgery, emergency and family medicine. He was a Company Surgeon for the Union Pacific Railroad, the industrial physician for several local companies and served as the County Coroner. In 1985 Dr. Coy came home to Central Florida and worked in Emergency Medicine and as a hospital physician, spent most of his time in the medical intensive care unit. At the same time Dr. Coy began a multi-year stint in the walk-in clinic business. He was always urged to hurry through his exams by his nursing staff because other patients would be waiting. Dr. Coy found it easy to speed efficiently through acute care cases, yet agreed the patient's deserved a better explanation to their reoccurring symptoms. Dr. Coy's father introduced him to Chelation Therapy, while Dr. Coy had already been introduced to Environmental Medicine and Allergy therapies not used by conventional physicians. It was at that time over twenty years ago that Dr. Coy began to add to his training with non-traditional medicine. "God has created us in a wonderful and special way and has revealed to us wonderful things at our disposal that we may use to not only live in good health, but to restore our bodies and minds, and spirits, and find joy in Him forever," was Dr. Coy's belief. The greatest service Dr. Coy offered was to help patients to restore their health to the healthiest they can be. He believed, "People don't retire and move to Florida to die." They move here to live the remainder of their lives to the fullest!" Dr. Coy was preceded in death by his father, Dr. Francis Coy, mother, Dorothy E. Coy, sister Peggy Coy Wallace and brother Joseph Coy. He is survived by sons; Matthew Coy,Dr. Joshua (Tarryn) Coy, Arthur (Katherine) Coy, Aaron (Wendi) Coy, and daughters; Lydia Coy and Lorana Coy; and grandchildren; Autumn Skye; Ethan, Analeigh, and Noelle; Maddux and Kurt. His life will be celebrated with a memorial service on Saturday, March 2, at 12:30 at Beyers Funeral Home 1123 W Main St, Leesburg FL 34748 followed by a reception at Sunlife Health Restoration.
