James Campbell

James Campbell, MD

Chairman

Medical School: Marshall University School of Medicine

Completed Residency: Charleston Area Medical Center

Professional Interests: Medicine: Hyperlipidemia, HTN, Vascular Disease (AAA, PAD, CVD). Preventative Medicine. Academic: Social determinants of health, diversity and inclusiveness, bias, and micro-aggressions. Quality and patient safety projects.

Hobbies / Interests: Trail Running, trout fishing, camping, exploration of trails around West Virginia, cycling rail trails across Appalachia, kayaking, and skiing. Indoor: science fiction/fantasy novels, anime/manga, gaming (Xbox), strategy board games, and anything Marvel/DC. Travel: National parks across the United States and Canada to see my in-laws.

Strengths of Training at CAMC: The culture of CAMC (and West Virginia) is welcoming and warm. Within the program egos are dropped and there is a sense of family. Our program's passion is focusing on making sure every resident has the wellbeing and peace to focus on education. Attempts at minimizing stress and having a clinical learning environment that is not only focused on patient centered care but also resident education across the institution.

Life in Charleston: The proximity to outdoor focused activities is incredible. Within a 1 hour drive you can be whitewater rafting world class rapids on the New River Gorge, trail running/hiking some of the most beautiful areas on the east coast, and skiing in the winter. In addition, we are 3 hours away from multiple cities (Pittsburg, Columbus, Lexington, etc.) that gives the opportunity for weekend trips. The city has excellent running opportunities including a path on the river that passes in front of the state capital. The most important positive about Charleston though is the people. Welcoming, warm, and helpful are just a few of the adjectives I would use to describe them.

Jessica Amos

Jessica Amos, DO

Division Chief, Internal Medicine

Professional Interests: I have always been passionate to care and serve the community in which I grew up in. However during residency I quickly learned that academic medicine would also be an integral part of my future as an Internal Medicine physician. Academia not only allows me to have the ongoing opportunity to advance my own knowledge of medicine and patient care but also provides me the avenue to use that knowledge to educate the next generation of physicians. My role in leadership as Associate Program Director has also allowed me to provide continuous program development and work closely with residents to provide and meet their needs to become excellent physicians.

Hobbies / Interests: Weekend trips to Lewisburg area for outdoor adventures and R&R time with family and friends.

Strengths of Training at CAMC: Innovation. CAMC not only provides excellent education but we also work continuously with residents and use their input to help with ongoing program improvement. We train some of the best general Internists but also offer advanced training in fellowships that is growing every year.

Life in Charleston: Even though Charleston is the largest city in WV and has the typical variety of restaurants and activities, it still offers that “small town” feel of community.
