About Me

Dr. McHugh is board certified in Internal Medicine-Cardiovascular Disease. After earning her medical and graduate degrees from Vanderbilt University College of Medicine, she received additional training through residency in Internal Medicine at Johns Hopkins University and fellowship in Cardiology at Emory University.  She then completed an additional fellowship in Electrophysiology at Vanderbilt University.   She  loves caring for the Lynchburg community because it is immensely gratifying and a tremendous honor to contribute to improving the health of such a friendly, welcoming, and kind group of people that make up this community.  When she is not providing care at the Heart and Vascular Institute,  she likes to spend her time outdoors, preferably hiking, or building something useful with her new wood-working tools.

Ratings and comments are obtained from verified patient survey data collected on behalf of Centra by a third-party vendor, Press Ganey Associates, Inc. Centra uses Press Ganey’s MD satisfaction surveys to assess patients' experiences with healthcare providers and staff. In order to support full transparency, Centra ensures that the full range of patient comments, both positive and negative, are published.

Star ratings are displayed only for those physicians who participate in Centra’s patient experience survey program through Press Ganey and have received a minimum of 30 surveys responses.

Despite the drive toward full transparency, occasionally some comments cannot be published because they jeopardize the patient’s privacy, contain vulgar or offensive language, or contain libelous or defamatory content. In these rare instances, comment exclusion based on a strict set of exclusion criteria may be appropriate.
