Choosing your physician is an important part of any health program. The Charles Cole Memorial Hospital Physician Directory will help you to make decisions when choosing the right physician for your health care needs.
On this page, you will find information on physicians who can advise you on preventive health care, as well as treat you when you are ill or injured. These physicians are ready to assist you with any health care need. You will notice that these physicians have completed their medical school, residency and/or fellowship training at a variety of respected institutions. A residency training program begins after medical school and can last from two to seven years, depending on the specialty. A fellowship involves even more advanced training in a specific field.
Most Charles Cole Memorial Hospital physicians are board certified, which means they have met the high standards of one of the medical specialty boards. Many other physicians are actively working toward certification. To become certified, a physician must complete post graduate training in a specialty and pass an examination administered by the certifying board.
