Bland, Alisha J., MD
Program: Pediatrics
Year: PGY II
Hometown: Melbourne, FL
Undergrad School: Florida State University

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 free time?
Exploring new cities, cuddling my two dogs while watching true crime shows, and spending time with family & friends!
