Dr. Anthony Galanos, M.D.
Dr. Anthony Galanos, M.D., holds a master’s degree in clinical psychology from the University of Dayton. He earned his medical degree from the University of South Alabama. He then completed internal medicine residency training at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, followed by advanced training through a fellowship in geriatric medicine at Duke University.
Throughout his career, he has been devoted to relieving suffering, finding out what matters to patients and their families, and caring for his coworkers. Towards these goals, Dr. Galanos has done debriefs around difficult deaths and is committed to systematizing debriefs for clinicians on the front lines. He has a dedicated research interest in personal and professional grief and its contribution to burnout, relatively unexplored topics, and has developed a cadre of young doctors who share this interest. Tony or “Dr G,” as he is known, lectures and teaches frequently in the School of Medicine and the Department of Medicine.
