T. Scott McGee, M.D.
"I would like to thank the people of Albany who have welcomed my family and me into their community. Everyone has been warm and gracious, and we feel we have found a great place to call home. Albany is everything that I hoped and expected it to be. I look forward to seeing my children grow up to be the kind of people that they were meant to be. Picking an area to live in is like picking a church. These are the people who, in a way, are your extended family. Hopefully, they will be there for you when you need them, as you will be when they need you. I grew up in Virginia learning to appreciate the great cultural heritage that we in the South share. I attended the Virginia Military Institute because I felt that school sought to develop the spirit and body as well as the mind. I then attended medical school at The University of Virginia. Since the Army paid for my education, they sent me to William Beaumont Army Medical Center for my Internship. I later did my residency in Orthopedics at the combined program of the University of Texas and William Beaumont at El Paso.
I have served in Texas, Virginia, Georgia, and Germany during my military career. In the Army I had the opportunity to grow through diverse experiences including attendance at the Army Ranger school, Airborne school, scuba school and others. I spent five years on jump status and have Jordanian and Australian parachute wings. I also have combat parachute wings earned during the airborne assault into Panama during Just Cause with the 1st Ranger Battalion. Numerous times I have found myself as the sole surgeon taking care of soldiers in diverse places such as Bosnia, Panama, Jordan and others. I have learned to rely on my hard-earned skills and shoulder the responsibility that comes with others trusting you to take care of their illnesses. Settling down in Albany was a conscious decision by my wife and me, having traveled fairly extensively. I believe this community has everything our family needs to be happy. It avoids those things that larger communities have that are unpleasant. We love the South and are already growing to love Albany. I believe that the Good Lord gives everyone certain gifts. It is, however, up to the individual to figure out what those gifts are and glorify the creator by using them. I have always enjoyed mechanical tasks and intellectual challenges. That is why I was drawn to orthopedic surgery. To those people who have already and will in the future trust me to take care of them, I thank you. I will cherish that trust and endeavor to treat you as I would a member of my own family."
