2025 Physicians Ball recap
On Saturday, October 25, 2025, physicians, donors, and other constituents gathered to celebrate physicians, the practice of medicine in Middle Tennessee, and the great work of the Medical Foundation of Nashville. More than 100 guests enjoyed a three-course dinner, live music, and a silent auction, along with remarks from Board Chair Marilynn Michaud, MD, highlighting the Medical Foundation of Nashville’s impact and the 20th anniversary of Project Access Nashville Specialty Care. The evening brought physicians together in a celebratory setting and raised funds to support the Foundation’s work, made possible by sponsors HCA Healthcare / TriStar Health, Baker Tilley x KraftCPAs, SVMIC, and Tennessee Oncology, as well as our patrons, ticket purchasers, and donors.
