Rutland Regional Medical Center is pleased to welcome Rachel Bruce, MD, to its staff of exceptional physicians.
After taking some time off to take care of her new daughter, Dr. Bruce is joining the staff of Rutland Regional’s Hospitalist Program. A hospitalist is a fully qualified, experienced doctor who directs the care for most patients when they are admitted to a hospital.
They do everything that your primary care physician would do and they keep your doctor up to date on all of the treatment you undergo while you were in the hospital.
When you are discharged from the hospital, your regular doctor will have all the information about your treatment.
Dr. Bruce worked as a hospitalist at South Shire Hospital in 2009 after an earlier stint with Southwestern Vermont Medical Center in Bennington. She underwent highly valued fellowship training in 2005 at world famous Memorial Sloane Kettering Hospital in New York after completing her residency training at St. Vincent’s Catholic Medical Center there.
“I feel very lucky to be part of such a committed, caring hospital and community,“ Dr. Bruce said. “Vermont is such a wonderful place to live and raise a family. We have felt so welcome here and continue to find new inspiration every day.”
Dr. Bruce graduated from SUNY-Brooklyn Medical School in 2000 after receiving her undergraduate degree from Barnard College in 1995.
