Meagan Robbins, MD
Hometown: Pontotoc, MS
Residency: Internal Medicine/Pediatrics, UMMC
Chief Residency: UMMC Pediatrics
Division: General Internal Medicine
Tell us about yourself. I’m a Mississippi native, born in Pontotoc, and graduated from the University of Mississippi with a degree in English, of all things. I then came to UMMC for medical school and stayed for Med-Peds residency. After training, I spent a year as a Chief Resident for the Pediatrics Department. I’m happily married to my husband Will, and we are “fun aunt & uncle” to our friends’ kids. I get way too excited about new books, planning vacations, 90s sitcom reruns, Disney World, and quirky coffee mugs.
What are you most looking forward to working at UMMC? Most definitely the people. I have absolutely loved getting to take care of our “sickest of the sick” patients from birth to geriatrics in Med-Peds training and look forward to continuing to have that privilege. Also, I’m getting to work with all of these amazing doctors I looked up to during training and feel so lucky to get that opportunity.
