Mia Robertson, daughter of Duck Dynasty stars Missy and Jase Robertson, is reeling from a devastating loss this week. Dr. David Genecov, the renowned physician who had been a cornerstone in Mia’s life, was tragically killed in a car accident.
The heart-wrenching news broke on Instagram just as Mia was undergoing her cleft lip and palate surgery. Missy Robertson shared the devastating news, describing Dr. Genecov’s profound impact on their lives.
“His compassionate approach not only eased Mia’s fears but also strengthened both of us beyond what we thought possible,” Missy writes.
Mia’s journey has been closely followed since childhood, with her recent surgery marking her 14th operation. She hopes it will be her last.
The Mia Moo Fund was created to ensure every child can experience the joy of smiling, thanks to Dr. Genecov’s groundbreaking work.
Missy revealed that Mia has been informed of Dr. Genecov’s passing and is deeply affected. The family fondly remembers Dr. Genecov’s dedication and the personal touch he brought to Mia’s treatment.
“We are devastated by his loss, but eternally grateful for the life-changing work he did,” Missy adds. “His legacy of medical innovation will impact countless lives for generations.”
Mia has not yet addressed the tragedy on social media. “She can’t recall her life before Dr. Genecov,” her mother says. “We ask for your prayers for his family and everyone touched by this profound loss.”
