Heather Hughes, M.D.


Dr. Hughes testimonial


"From day one as an intern, I have felt that the attendings truly value my opinion. I consistently feel like a vital part of patient management. This can be one of the most important parts of becoming a doctor. As a resident at UVA, I am pushed to think and act independently, yet I never feel alone. The faculty at UVA really care about our medical education and our development as physicians."
