Chief Executive Officer

 

Dr. Flynt received his M.D. degree from Emory University in 1960. After four years in family practice he joined the U.S. Public Health Service at the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, GA. He spent 20 years with CDC, including a pediatric residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital. At CDC he trained as an epidemiologist and ultimately became manager of two new CDC’s programs: one for Birth Defects and another for Diabetes. He left CDC to join the Georgia Department of Health as Director of its Family Health Program. In 1983, Dr. Flynt started a consulting firm that provided program management and evaluation services to federal, state, and local public health agencies and to not-for-profit health organizations.

He retired from consulting in 1996 while continuing to work as a PTA volunteer, in libraries and with non-profit organizations, including Community Clinic. In May 2008, he was appointed the interim Executive Director of Community Clinic and designated its Chief Executive Officer in September 2008.
