Current Pediatric Residents

Alisha J. Bland, MD
Program: Pediatrics
Year: PGY III
Hometown: Melbourne, FL
Undergrad School: Florida State University
Medical School: American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine
Residency: University of Mississippi Medical Center

Why did you choose UMMC?:
I already felt like a part of the family from my interview! Also, being the only Children’s hospital in the state, I know that I’ll get the exposure and training I need to provide great care for my future patients!

Career Interest:
General Pediatrics


What makes you unique?:
I'm British; I just don't have the cool accent! I graduated with my associates degree before I got my high school diploma. I'm personable and basically a big kid at heart, so I can always find a way to connect with my patients! And I'm ambidextrous!


What you like to do in your free time?:
Exploring new cities, cuddling my two dogs while watching true crime shows, and spending time with family & friends!
