VUMC Radiology is happy to announce that fourth-year diagnostic radiology resident Cam Henry, MD, will be staying with the department as a Cardiothoracic Fellow. After his fellowship, Dr. Henry will then join our faculty as an Assistant Professor.
“During my training at VUMC, I’ve had an incredibly fulfilling experience, largely due to the exceptional faculty and staff who have served as my mentors,” says Dr. Henry. “Their guidance and support have made my time here truly remarkable. I am excited to continue witnessing exceptional cases and participating in life-altering cardiothoracic care, which very few places—aside from VUMC—see on a regular basis."
A graduate of Stanford University, Dr. Henry went on to receive his medical degree from the University of Kentucky College of Medicine before joining VUMC as a radiology resident in 2019.
“Cam Henry has always been a pleasure to work with as a resident,” says Jennifer Williams, MD, Section Chief of Cardiothoracic Imaging. “He is always considerate, thoughtful, curious, and has continued to grow as a radiologist and a leader at Vanderbilt. Dr. Henry has always contributed to research in the department and attended conferences as a Vanderbilt representative. We are excited to have him start his next chapter in radiology as the Cardiothoracic Fellow. As our section continues to grow, we look forward to Dr. Henry's contribution to not only cardiothoracic imaging, but the radiology department as he stays on as faculty after fellowship.”
While at Vanderbilt, Dr. Henry has contributed to the department in several ways, including serving as the Resident Liaison for the Radiology Office of Diversity and Inclusion and joining the Educational Design Committee. Dr. Henry has also worked with numerous groups regarding diversity, equity and inclusion in healthcare and community outreach, and has served as a mentor to several undergraduate and medical students. Dr. Henry is also an active participant in VUMC Radiology's sustainability and planetary health initiatives.
“I am eager to continue my journey at VUMC, where I can pay forward the experience and knowledge that I have gained,” says Dr. Henry.
Prior to coming to Nashville, Dr. Henry worked as a web contractor for the Stanford Prevention Research Center, where he created an online platform to share information about the benefits of Aspirin for elderly Americans. He also helped develop FitDC, an online initiative from DC Mayor Muriel Bowser to help improve exercise rates among citizens in the capital.
Congratulations Dr. Henry!
