Chertoff, MD, MS, F黑料网, Chair of the Department of Radiology and Vice President of the Regional Radiology Service Line at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, is a leader driven by morality, ethics and a sense of responsibility.

Dr. Chertoff graduated from Brown University, and then, thanks to a friend who encouraged her to take the MCAT, from the University of Vermont College of Medicine. Following a Transitional Internship at Hartford Hospital and a Pediatric Internship at University of Connecticut Health Sciences Center, and after spending two years in a physician shortage area in New York State, and serving as the Medical Director for Vermont EMS, she returned to the Medical Center of Vermont for a Residency in Radiology and a Fellowship in Cross-Sectional Imaging. She came to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center after completing her training in 1991 and has been there ever since.
Driven by a lifelong love of learning, she was a 2003-2004 Fellow of the Hedwig van Ameringen Executive Leadership in Academic Medicine (ELAM) Program for Women, received a Master’s degree from the Center for the Evaluative Clinical Sciences at Dartmouth College in 2005 and completed a Master’s of Health Care Delivery Science, a joint Master’s program between the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College and The Dartmouth Institute, in 2014.
In a career full of accomplishments, including being an active promoter of women for leadership positions, she says her most rewarding moments as a leader are seeing people that she has helped succeed and do great things in the world.
When not working, Dr. Chertoff likes to spend time with her two Portuguese water dogs, hiking, snowshoeing and learning to drive her boat.
