Our physicians and advanced practice providers, more than 30 and growing, serve a large, diverse population of patients at Augusta University Medical Center. We take pride in delivering dignity and respect, clear comprehensive information, and ensure collaboration to patients with complex conditions and their families.

A core part of our mission is to shape the next generation of medical professionals through patient care, education and research.

An additional component of our mission is to be leaders in research and innovation in order to make a positive impact our patients and health system.

Finally, let me say that our greatest attribute is our team. Our approach ensures the highest quality care for our patients and to make every effort to support our healthcare professionals. This philosophy is true throughout AUMC and is especially true within our division.
