Philip Brown, DO, who has served as medical director of the Emergency Department at Central Vermont Medical Center for fourteen years, was recently been named vice president of medical affairs.
“Physicians are under a tremendous amount of pressure to perform, see more patients, and do many other things. It’s like the tail is wagging the dog,” Dr. Brown commented. “I’ve been here long enough to know the heart and soul, and the quality of the physicians at CVMC. I want physicians to feel they have a real stake in continuing to make this a quality medical center."
Dr. Brown graduated from medical school at the University of Health Sciences College in Missouri and did his internship at Cranston General Hospital in Rhode Island. His residency was completed at Mount Sinai Hospital in Hartford, Connecticut. Dr Brown is certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine.
“Dr. Brown is well-respected by his colleagues and will be an asset to the senior management team at CVMC,” stated Judy Tarr, CVMC president and CEO. “I am impressed by his commitment to quality, safety and patient care.”
“I feel privileged to be a part of the next season of growth at Central Vermont Medical Center,” concluded Brown. He replaces long-time vice president of medical affairs Dr. Russ Davignon who retired in November.
