BMH Physician Obtains Re-Certification

Brattleboro Memorial Hospital physician David Albright, MD, was recently re-certified in Internal Medicine for the third time. Dr. Albright was originally certified in 1972 by the American Board of Internal Medicine. Recertification is required every ten years except for those who were originally certified before 1990. Dr. Albright was grandfathered and does not need to re-certify by examination but has been voluntarily recertifying. He feels that it is reflective of responsible practice to keep up with the recent development in the field and as such has continued to pursue the re-certification process.

The process of re-certification involves successful completion of review modules in all areas of internal medicine in addition to a day-long final written examination.

Dr. Albright, who was recently appointed the new Chief Medical Officer at Brattleboro Memorial Hospital, continues to practice internal medicine with a subspecialty in infectious diseases at Brattleboro Primary Care. In his role as the first CMO at BMH, Dr. Albright will assist the BMH Medical Staff and the hospital administration in such areas as quality, patient safety, and regulatory issues.

Dr. Albright received his doctor of medicine degree at Hahnemann Medical College and served his internship and residence at Allentown Hospital, all in Pennsylvania. He was awarded a fellowship in infectious diseases from Boston University.
