Berlin, Vt – Dr. Justin Stinnett-Donnelly recently completed his residency in Internal Medicine at Fletcher Allen Health Care and has joined the Central Vermont Medical Center Hospitalist team.
He received his undergraduate degree, a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with Great Distinction, from Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York. He earned a M.S. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Vermont (UVM) College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences and his Doctor of Medicine from the UVM Medical School.
In August of 2012 Dr. Stinnett-Donnelly was one of 25 residents selected form the Northeastern Unites States to participate in the Tufts’ Health Care Residency Rotation “Practicing Medicine in a Changing Health Care Environment.” While in his residency program Dr. Stinnett-Donnelly was winner of the Vermont Resident Research and Quality Improvement Competition for three years in a row. He also received the Eilsworth Amidon Award for Outstanding Proficiency in Internal Medicine. During medical school he served on the Medical Student Council including one term as president.
“I am pleased at the consistently high quality of the physicians we are able to recruit for CVMC,” said President and CEO Judy Tartaglia. Dr. Stinnett-Donnelly’s education, outstanding awards and other professional accomplishments make him a welcome addition to our hospitalist team.”
Hospitalists can help patients achieve a smooth, speedy recovery by following up on tests and adjusting treatments throughout the day as necessary. Because they are devoted to only hospital patients, Hospitalists are often able to spend more time talking to patients and their loved ones about care. They also stay in close contact with a patient’s primary care physician.
Dr. Stinnett-Donnelly, his wife Michelle and their two children Chloe, age two and Josh, 10 weeks old, currently live in Burlington.
“I like that CVMC is a medium sized hospital by Vermont standards. The medical center has a great personality and the staff is very engaged and friendly,” said Dr. Stinnett-Donnelly. He enjoys downhill and back country skiing and remarked “I am happy that CVMC is so close to Stowe where I have been a member of the Mount Mansfield Ski Patrol since before medical school.”
