The Chattanooga Surgical Foundation (CSF) is a non-profit organization that serves to educate and equip surgical residents and fellows during their training at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Medicine (UTHSC) here in Chattanooga.

Many surgeons at University Surgical Associates (USA) have trained in the UTHSC/USA program.

Our Mission

To educate and empower the next generation of surgeons as they prepare to care for their communities.

About the CSF

The Foundation was created by surgeons at USA, all of whom are faculty members of UTHSC and involved in training the next generation of surgeons.

The Foundation Board of Directors is made up of doctors who are passionate about medical education and patient care:

  • Dr. Ben Dart
  • Dr. Heath Giles
  • Dr. Michael Greer
  • Dr. Rob Headrick
  • Dr. Reid Maclellan
  • Dr. Jeanne Scanland
  • Dr. Dan Stanley
  • Dr. Laura Witherspoon

Through the support of the Foundation, USA surgeons work closely with surgical residents and fellows in the ethics, art and science of surgery.

Be a Part of the Future of Surgical Care

All funds generated by the Foundation are applied to the education of surgeons in training. Surgical training is a costly endeavor and the Foundation helps supplement costs associated with:
  • Research
  • Educational conferences
  • Association membership fees

If you or a family member have received care from a USA surgeon, please consider donating to the Foundation. Simply complete the form below and a CSF representative will reach out to discuss this opportunity to support surgical training in our community and beyond.
