Welcome from the Program Director and Associate Program Directors

Greetings from the Program Director and Associate Program Directors! We hope you have had the chance to fully view our website. Being involved in your accelerated, intellectual and academic growth in these very important years is something our Faculty remain very excited about. Please take note that our Program has recently made a pivot of sorts to embrace all the coming potential of AI and the IT informatics world to bear on your academic journey. We are fortunate to have two board-certified informatics Faculty with Dr. Scroggie, VP of Informatics, and Dr. Glisson, our Chief Medical Officer. Your Program Director is experienced in graphic user interface design and has inaugurated a recurring Noon Conference called “Deep Dive”, which reviews selected admissions within the Infirmary Health System. We tailor your learning experiences to ensure that you are meeting ACGME and ABIM requirements, while fulfilling your individual goals for your career as a physician. Attention to detail in scheduling is paramount to providing a quality work-life balance while receiving excellent post-graduate academic and clinical training in Internal Medicine from highly qualified Faculty in a friendly community-based environment. Fairhope and the Eastern Shore are beautiful places to live and learn during your 3 years of medical residency. Welcome to Thomas Hospital!
