Michael Everest, Founder of the Everest Foundation, has been recognized by Marquis Who’s Who Top Executives for dedication, achievements, and leadership in graduate medical education.
Dr. Everest has provided excellent service as the founder of The Everest Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in Los Angeles that that provides research and training opportunities to medical students in need. The Foundation cites research that maintains that less than 30% of medical school graduates actually receive relevant research experience during their postgraduate studies, and to alleviate this discrepancy, the organization aligns these students with top medical centers and teaching hospitals throughout the country. In addition, the Foundation supports various wellness initiatives for residents suffering from burnout, addiction, and mental health challenges.
Working with his board chair, his wife Agata Everest, Dr. Everest intends to leverage the Everest Foundation to initiate additional residency programs at community-based hospitals to further the careers of new doctors and at the same time augment healthcare in underserved areas. To that end, Dr. Everest also serves as board chair and chief academic officer of the Residents Medical Group, the designated sister organization of The Everest Foundation.
Dr. Everest obtained an undergraduate degree before transferring to Liberty University, Lynchburg, Virginia, from which he earned both a Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy. Notably, he served as a consultant for physician shortages in Sussex, Kent, and Pembury Hospitals. He was also active as a systems improvement team at the David Bruce Military Hospital in Malta and has accrued an honorary medical doctorate from Dell Medical School, the graduate medical school of The University of Texas at Austin.
Dr. Everest attributes his success to his care, compassion, and empathy for others. Apart from that, he also attributes that to his financial capacity to fund all the good works he has done through the foundation. In the immediate future, he intends to continue his efforts with the Everest Foundation and the Residents Medical Group to help build more residency programs at community-based hospitals.
