One of the best kept secrets in Caribbean Medical Schools | Trinity School of Medicine

Kingstown, St. Vincent -  Trinity Medical Sciences University,  is pleased to announce the dedication and renaming of its learning centre in honor of Sir Frederick N. Ballantyne, GCMG, MD. 

Trinity medical students will have expanded opportunities to join WPP medical teams to help children receiving care.

With a new academic year on the horizon, it is with great excitement that we announce the appointment of Dr. Frances C. Purcell as provost of Trinity Medical Sciences University and dean of the school of medicine. Dr. Purcell comes to Trinity from the Medical College of Georgia, a college of Augusta University, where she served as Assistant Dean of Curriculum from 2015 to 2019.  

A group of exceptional students of Trinity School of Medicine recently applied their classroom knowledge and assisted a group of visiting surgeons in the diagnosis, treatment, and recovery
phases of pediatric patients this past June. As a partner school of the World Pediatric
Project, our selected cohort worked alongside an esteemed team of physicians in an East Caribbean double mission that focused on neurosurgery and scoliosis.

We are pleased to announce residency match results for 2019! Once again, Trinity graduates continue to represent our school in placements at top healthcare institutions across the U.S., as a wide range of states are covered in this year's match.

Trinity School of Medicine has always prided itself on the strength and ambition of its students. So many future physicians come our way looking for something new; whether that's a unique learning environment built on support and a strong relationship with the faculty, a curriculum with an emphasis on clinical skills and service to patients, or just a true opportunity to live up to their potential. 


In this latest edition of our alumni spotlight, meet Dr. Julius Balogh. Read about growing up in Toronto and Hamilton, his first career as a nurse, attending Trinity, the value of hard work, and doing surgical and anesthesiology residencies in the great state of Texas. 

Last month, the World Pediatric Project returned to St. Vincent to provide cardiology services to the Eastern Caribbean pediatric patient population. As is always the case, Trinity students were with them, lending a hand and gaining invaluable experience. 

Earlier this month, Kid Companions visited their young friends at the St. Benedict Children's Home on St. Vincent. Each trip has a theme, with carnivals, arts and crafts, and field day games being popular choices among students and residents alike. Today's introduced a new and exciting variable for the kids: a well stocked and adaptability-inclusive water balloon fight. 

It is with heavy hearts today that we announce the passing of one of our own, former senior associate dean of clinical clerkships, Paula Dessauer Wilson, MD, MPH.
