If you’re not exactly sure what a fellowship is, it’s a professional learning program dedicated to preparing physicians for their respective specialty fields. Dr. Lucas Hamrick finished a three-year fellowship in June 2025, dedicated to advanced skills for his career in pulmonary and critical care medicine. During this three-year fellowship, Hamrick was involved in intensive study and a multitude of cutting-edge hands-on experiences while working in the ICU and at his pulmonology clinics.
Dr. Hamrick will begin as an Attending Physician at CAMC in September and will begin seeing patients in Summersville as part of CAMC’s satellite clinics in October. According to the fellowship program staff, “Dr. Lucas Hamrick will be a great addition to the hospital and clinics he will be involved with, and his skill as a pulmonologist and quick thinking in the ICU plus devotion to his patients makes him an extreme asset to the program.”
During his three years of fellowship, Hamrick was chosen as the Chief Fellow and earned acclaim with his research in medicine as well as travelling the country presenting at conferences on the heart and lungs. Hamrick stated that being a pulmonary and critical care fellow at CAMC was a great experience. He feels that the nursing staff and the faculty are excellent and because of them you can become one of the best doctors.
Congratulations to you, Dr. Lucas Hamrick. It has been a 15-year journey but definitely a road worth taking. Thankfully there are dedicated people like yourself that run the extra mile and commit to providing the best care a doctor can give.
