Meet Dr. McCullough
Toni McCullough was born and raised in Savannah, Georgia, where she has maintained a successful dermatology practice since 1994.
They say that if you love what you do, that you will never work a day in your life. Dr. McCullough truly loves Dermatology; it
is not a “job” for her. Dermatology is her passion and her “fun” on a daily basis. She does not just rush in and out of rooms
with patients. She truly enjoys giving each patient proper attention and education.
Personal
Dr. McCullough and her husband were both born and raised in Savannah. They have two children (a daughter and a son) and a
Samoyed. Dr. McCullough was an aerobics instructor for many years, and remains very interested in physical fitness, enjoying
running and weight training as well as healthy eating. Dr. McCullough is also an accomplished singer and an award-winning
speaker.
Education and Training
Dr. McCullough is a valedictorian graduate of St. Vincent's Academy in Savannah, Georgia. She graduated Summa Cum Laude with
a Bachelor of Science in Zoology from the University of Georgia. Her medical degree was obtained from the Medical College of
Georgia. Dr. McCullough then completed an internship in Internal Medicine at Memorial Health Medical University Center in
Savannah. After her internship, Dr. McCullough began an Ophthalmology residency at Penn State University. However, she realized
Dermatology was her true passion, so she returned to the Medical College of Georgia to complete her Dermatology Residency.
Education / Presenter
Dr. McCullough is actively involved in educating others as encouraged by Hippocrates. She educates her patients as well as
those in training. Dr. McCullough serves as the Memorial Health University Medical Center Chief of Dermatology. She serves on
