Carl Barrick, DO
Graduated: Class of 2015
Campus: Carolinas
Residency:
Lehigh Valley Health Network, Allentown PA.
Specialty:
Dermatology 2019
Hometown: Minerva, OH
As an alumnus of VCOM, I seek to provide the best care that I can to my community, which serves an underserved area. I also worked to train the next generation of medical students; medical students from several institutions rotate with me throughout the year to learn more about dermatology.
Was there anything or anyone at VCOM that inspired you to become the physician you are today?
The admissions staff at VCOM took a chance on me and gave me an opportunity to become a leader at VCOM and graduate at the top of my class with strong board scores. For that, I will be forever grateful.
How has the VCOM mission inspired you during residency or in your practice?
As an alumnus of VCOM, I seek to provide the best care that I can to my community, which serves an underserved area. I also worked to train the next generation of medical students; medical students from several institutions rotate with me throughout the year to learn more about dermatology.
What is the best advice you can give a medical student to help them in their path towards being a physician?
Go into every day with an open mind and willingness to learn. I continue to learn every day from my colleagues, patients, and students.
What are your fondest memories of your time at VCOM?
I enjoyed serving as the founding president of the pediatrics club of VCOM Carolinas. We went on to win organization of the year under the direction of Dr. Hanah Sahar.
What career accomplishment are you most proud of?
I am most proud of listening to my patients, continuing to find answers, and providing treatment when everyone else has given up.
When not working, what activities do you enjoy?
I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters. We enjoy the Ohio summers at the pool and in the garden. I enjoy finding new life in old treasures. We enjoy taking long walks with our standard poodle, Charlotte.
