Dr. Vyge earned a medical degree from the Royal College of Surgeons in Dublin, Ireland, then completed internships in general medicine, nephrology, urology and otolaryngology at Beaumont Hospital in Dublin and a residency in internal medicine at St. Vincent’s Medical Center in Bridgeport, CT, where he was chief resident in internal medicine.

“We are indeed fortunate to have Dr. Vyge join our team at Beaufort Memorial,” said Sam Derrick, Executive Director of Beaufort Memorial Physician Partners.  “Having an internist with his background and experience will certainly benefit the health of people in our community.”
