2023-2024 (Current)

Jim Sullivan, MD

Medical School: University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville
Residency: Family Medicine, Tufts Family Medicine Residency at Cambridge Health Alliance

Jim grew up in Easton, Massachusetts. After high school, he traveled to South Carolina to attend Clemson University (Go Tigers!) where he studied biology and psychology. Jim remained in the Palmetto state for medical school at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in Greenville, SC. As a med student, he was inspired by the relationships that family medicine physicians have with their patients, often treating each as if they were a member of their own family. While he carved his own path to family medicine, Jim spent his time volunteering at the Greenville Free Medical clinic, working with adaptive athletes, and coaching a youth soccer team (i.e. running after a mob of 6-year olds).

He returned to Massachusetts for family medicine residency at Tufts/CHA, where he furthered his interests in sports medicine through high school team coverage and at events like the Boston Marathon and the Head of the Charles. Jim is thrilled to be staying in Boston for fellowship, where he hopes to further his knowledge of musculoskeletal ultrasound, outpatient procedures, and team coverage.

In his free time, he likes playing sports, running, skiing, hiking, walking his dog, and cheering for his favorite Boston sports teams (especially the Red Sox). Jim also enjoys traveling and exploring new restaurants with his wife, Shannon.
