Dr. Doherty, alongside his colleagues and fellow TPMG Radiologists, Janae Johnson, MD, and Jeffrey VandeSand, MD, provides diagnostic radiology services and interpretation of medical images for practices within TPMG and the surrounding areas.

Dr. Doherty received his undergraduate degree in Biology from the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg. He completed a Master of Science in Anatomy and Doctor of Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) in Richmond. Dr. Doherty continued his training at VCU, where he completed a residency in Diagnostic Radiology and fellowships in Abdominal Imaging and Breast Imaging.

As a result of nearly a decade of training as a radiologist, Dr. Doherty has extensive experience in the interpretation of imaging studies to include ultrasound, MRI, CT, and mammography. Although he is specially trained in both breast and abdominal imaging, Dr. Doherty has a special interest and connection with breast imaging.

This organization seeks to lift the spirits and brighten the days of patients in local hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and nursing homes by bringing trained therapy dogs for visits.
