Dr. Tammy Robinson, ’90, died Jan. 19

Dr. Tammy Jane Robinson, 56, of Douglasville, Georgia passed away on January 19, 2021.

Tammy was born on March 12, 1964 at Crawford W. Long Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. In 1982 she graduated from Douglas County High School as class Salutatorian and then attended Mercer University in Macon, Georgia, where she graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology. She was accepted to her father’s alma mater, the Medical College of Georgia, where she received her Doctorate Degree (M.D.) in 1990. Following her three year family practice residency at Floyd Medical Center in Rome, Georgia, she joined her father’s Douglasville practice in 1993. It was a priority of hers to return to Douglasville so she could give back to the community she loved so much. She felt her parents, teachers, coaches and church and community leaders all had a hand in her achievements and she wanted to do the same for others. Tammy continued to practice medicine with her father until his retirement in 2007, at which time she became a solo family practitioner until she closed the office in 2017.
