CMG Provider Updates

We are very happy to announce that several wonderful clinicians, who bring with them a great deal of experience, have recently joined us at Capitol Medical Group.

Dr. Gillian Adams, previously the Medical Director and lead physician for many years of a MedStar practice in Alexandria, joined CMG Adult Medicine in August. Dr. Adams has over 25 years of clinical experience in Family Medicine and will become the CMG Adult Medicine’s lead physician. She attended VCU Medical School, and completed her residency at Franklin Square Medical.

Dr. Susan Leggett- Johnson is a distinguished Internal Medicine physician joined CMG over the summer and brings with her over 30 years of clinical experience treating adult patients. She has an extensive background in healthcare leadership and also serves on the Board of Directors for CCI Health and Wellness and on the Advisory Board for August A. White III for Healthcare Equity.

Dr. Bergit Schoellmann joined the team in August and also brings more than 25 years of clinical experience treating adult patients in the outpatient as well as inpatient settings.

Abigail Haddock, PA, joined CMG in September from Pennsylvania and has been an energetic and wonderful addition to our Internal Medicine team.

We are also thrilled to welcome in November Dr. Marijane Hynes, a nationally renowned expert in Obesity and Medical Weight Management to CMG Adult Medicine. Dr. Hynes went to medical school at George Washington University and completed her residency in Internal Medicine at Georgetown. Dr. Hynes founded the Weight Management Program at George Washington University Medical Center in 2008 and served as its director for 16 years. She has lectured nationally on Weight Management and Obesity, and in 2023 was the recipient of the Sol Katz award for Excellence in Teaching from the American College of Physicians Washington DC Chapter.

Dr. Hynes will be seeing patients in need of weight management at CMG two days a week starting Tuesday, November 5th. Her sole focus will be weight management for current CMG adult Medicine patients. Patients will continue to see their current CMG provider for annual well visits and for management of other issues. If you would like to schedule a consultation with Dr. Hynes, please call the office at 301-304-8800 or send us a portal message. It is our privilege to be able to offer this expertise to our patient community.

We are very excited to welcome all of these individuals as they will be a wonderful addition to our team. CMG remains committed to having compassionate, caring, and experienced providers and staff for our patients.

We kindly ask for your understanding as we continue to transform and build the adult side of the practice. Please note that CMG Adult Medicine is still currently closed to new patients. Until we have more availability, which we hope will be in 2025, we will only be able to accommodate established patients. Established patients at CMG are patients who have had an Annual Wellness Visit at CMG in the last 3 years.

We thank you for your support of CMG Adult Medicine as we strive to provide you with exceptional care and continue to build a team that will set a high bar of excellence.
