Baugh’s decision to return to the region’s only academic health system is rooted in the positive experience she had as a medical student and a desire to see the College of Medicine continue to grow: “I received a great education at USA, and I wanted to expand the otolaryngology experience of the medical students as well as provide care for the community around us.”
The conditions that otolaryngologists treat range from dizziness and balance issues to tumors found in the head and neck. Baugh will provide general otolaryngology care to patients along the Gulf Coast.
“I enjoy working with both children and adults,” she said. “Otolaryngology allows me to see patients from every stage of life. We are required to have a diverse skill set, and I was attracted to the range of diseases that otolaryngologists treated.”
Baugh is from Florence, Ala., and attended Vanderbilt University, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in human and organizational development in 2008. She earned her medical degree from the USA College of Medicine in 2013 and completed residency training in otolaryngology at the University of Missouri in 2018.
Baugh is accepting new patients at USA Health Midtown. To schedule an appointment, call 251-341-4094.
