Bethany Carlos, MD

American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)

Bethany Carlos, MD, is a Primary Care Pediatric Resident at the Medical University of South Carolina where she completed medical training. Prior to entering medical training, Bethany obtained a Masters of Public Health with a focus in health disparities, community health, infant mortality, and other maternal and child health topics. Since the beginning of her medical training, she pursued opportunities to bridge the gap between traditional medicine and public health. In addition to her affiliation with the National Medical Association, she is also active in the American Academy of Pediatrics and serves as a National Health Service Corps participant. Bethany was honored to be accepted into the NMA Climate and Health Equity Fellowship because understanding the impact of climate on community health will help her better serve her patients. She is looking forward to equipping minority communities with tools about the environment that they live, play, learn, and worship in. Particularly in pediatrics, she is always aiming to prevent the onset or worsening of poor health outcomes.
