 Craig Weeks, MD
"I am excited to return to my native New England to continue my postgraduate training as an HIV & Viral Hepatitis fellow! After completing high school in Rhode Island, I pursued a BS in Biology from Franklin Pierce University in Rindge, NH. I took some time to live and work in Europe before earning my MD from St. George’s University in Grenada, followed by a Family Medicine Residency in Midland, MI. I have always had special interest in HIV and LGBTQ health, and my Residency’s unique four-year curriculum allowed me to explore electives in HIV and transgender medicine.
Along with key administrators and staff members, we were able to establish an Inclusion & Diversity Council for the hospital system focusing on marginalized patients, especially those in the LGBTQ community. More than anything, these rotations shined more light on the lack of LGBTQ, HIV and hepatitis clinicians in rural areas of the country. In pursuing this Fellowship, I aim to bring competent, compassionate, and patient-centered care to these underserved populations."
