β¨ CCMS Member Spotlight: Katy Richardson, MD, MPH β¨
CCMS is proud to recognize Dr. Katy Richardson, whose career reflects a sustained commitment to public health and community medicine in the Lowcountry and beyond.
A Barnwell, SC, native, Dr. Richardson began her career as a family physician at free clinics and FQHCs in North Carolina, East Baltimore, and the Lowcountry. In 2015, she joined SCDHEC (now the Department of Public Health), where she led public health consultation work across the region until retiring earlier this year.
Dr. Richardson holds degrees from Duke University, Stanford School of Medicine, and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. She remains active in community health leadership through roles with the LWVCA Healthcare Committee, Shifa Clinic, QT Camp, Tricounty SHAPE, the Charleston County Addiction Crisis Task Force, and CCMS`s CCSD Health Advisory Committee. She also serves as the "Doc" for Charleston County School of the Arts through the Boeing Center`s Docs Adopt Initiative.
Dr. Richardson is married to Dr. David Bundy, a pediatrician at MUSC, and they have three children.
CCMS thanks Dr. Richardson for her decades of service to public health and her continued investment in our region`s healthcare community.
