Overview William Ventres, MD, MA
Bill Ventres is a seasoned family physician and medical anthropologist. Clinically, he has more than 30 years’ experience as a community-based family doctor working in both in ambulatory and hospital settings. His work has focused on the care of underserved and minority populations in safety-net clinics and corrections health settings, attending principally to economically poor and socially marginalized patients. Outside of clinical practice, he has been a leader in the international development of family medicine, physician-patient communication, and using qualitative methods to explore research questions in generalist practice. He has written extensively on topics related to health equity, ethics in global health practice, and social accountability in medical education.
He has been a visiting professor in family medicine, public health, and medical education in Venezuela, El Salvador and South Africa. He retired in July 2023 as the Ben Saltzman, MD, Distinguished Chair in Rural Family Medicine. He currently is a graduate student in Latin American Philosophy at the University of Central America in San Salvador, El Salvador.
