The Wake County Medical Society Community Health Foundation


Margaret Kelly Burkhead, MD, serves as an adjunct professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill while concurrently working as an independent consultant. As part of her commitment to patient well-being, Margaret Kelly Burkhead, MD, is affiliated with both the Wake County Medical Society and the Wake County Medical Society Community Health Foundation.

The Wake County Medical Society is a network of physicians who are dedicated to improving health care for their patients in North Carolina. The society focuses on increasing access to care, improving quality of care, and reducing the cost of medical treatment for patients. More than 500 Wake County physicians have joined together to become advocates for the men and women they treat.

The Community Health Foundation is an offshoot of the Medical Society itself. It was organized as a tool for physicians, allowing them to fund and carry out important projects within the community. Current programs run by the foundation include Project Access, Community Care of Wake and Johnston Counties, and CapitalCare Collaborative, all of which work to serve patients from disadvantaged backgrounds.
