District 67 deserves leadership rooted in the communities it serves.
My husband and I built our family and our small business here in eastern Utah. Through our work in healthcare, education, and community organizations, I’ve seen firsthand the challenges rural communities face — and the opportunities we have when local leaders work together to solve problems.
I’m running for the Utah House of Representatives because I believe our communities deserve practical leadership that understands rural healthcare, supports strong schools, and helps local businesses grow.
Eastern Utah is a special place to live and raise a family. I want to help ensure it remains strong for the next generation.

At a Carbon County Chamber luncheon, Gina Gagon was invited to speak about Gagon Family Medicine as the featured business spotlight. The clinic, which Gina operates with her husband Dr. Shane Gagon, has served families across Carbon and Emery counties for more than two decades.
Founded by the Gagons, the practice has grown into a comprehensive rural healthcare provider with primary care offices in both Price and Huntington. The clinic also provides urgent care services, licensed therapy services, and has delivered babies for families throughout the region.
“There’s a perception out there that the quality of care in rural areas is not on par with the quality of care in more urban areas. And we take offense to that. It kind of lands as a challenge to us. We want to be better than good; we want to be great.”
Gagon Family Medicine recently celebrated its 25-year anniversary, a milestone reflecting the clinic’s long-standing commitment to providing high-quality healthcare close to home for residents of eastern Utah.
