Dr. Satira Perry, also a board-certified family physician, will see patients at the family health clinic. A graduate of Xavier University in New Orleans, she earned the M.D. at Meharry Medical College and completed residency training in family medicine at UMMC. She previously worked at Care Plus, a family medicine clinic in Ridgeland.

Dewery Montgomery, chief operating officer at HCHC, said the new positions are greatly needed.

"This gives us additional resources that will provide health care to a county that is medically underserved," he said.
