H. Thomas Milhorn, M.D., Ph.D.

 Curriculum Vitae

 

Background

 

Birth. October 30, 1936 in Kingsport, Tennessee. My father was a heavy-duty diesel mechanic for Portland-Penn Dixie Cement Corporation and  my mother was a homemaker. I have an older brother, Fred, who is retired and lives on a lake in  Arkansas to make the fishing easier, and a younger sister, Phyllis, who recently retired from Allergan Pharmaceutical Company in Los Angeles, California. She now lives in Meridian, Mississippi.
Family. In 1968 I married Kay Harris (shortly after she received her master's degree in medical/surgical nursing from the University of Alabama). We have one child, Toby Milhorn, who is a graphic designer in Huntsville, Alabama. A stepson, Steve Pope, also lives in Huntsville where he is a TV-commercial producer/director.

 

Education and Training

 

1955. Graduated from Dobyns-Bennett High School in Kingsport, Tennessee where I played football and ran distances in track. Dobyns-Bennett, by the way, ranks #1 in all-time basketball wins in the whole USA and #1 in all-time football wins in the state of Tennessee. Oh, the school ranks #2 in all-time baseball wins the the USA.

1960. B. S. from Lincoln Memorial University (LMU) in Harrogate, Tennessee. Graduated magna cum laude with a double major in mathematics and physics and thirty-eight hours in chemistry and pre-engineering. I participated in intramural softball and basketball and twice was elected to the Intramural All Star basketball team. Between my freshman and sophomore years I took a pressure vessel design course at East Los Angeles Junior College.

1964 (July). Ph.D. in Physiology and Biophysics under the tutelage of Dr. Arthur Guyton at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. In addition to the standard program of study, the training included a six-week radioisotopes course at Oak Ridge National Laboratories, a one week visit to Latter Day Saints Hospital in Salt Lake City to visit one of the few experts at the time in the use of computers in biomedical research, and a one week visit to the University of Wyoming Department of Biomedical Engineering to see what was being done in that new field.

1964 (July-October). Biomathematics postdoctoral fellowship at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina.

1975. M.D. from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine (while Professor of Physiology and Biophysics).

1980. Completed a family practice residency program at the University of Mississippi School of Medicine (while Professor of Physiology and Biophysics and Assistant Professor of Family Medicine).

1981. Board certified in family medicine by the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM)

1987. Certified in addiction medicine from the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM).

1988. Completed six graduate hours in substance abuse counseling through Liberty University.

1999. State licensure as a certified mental health counselor (LCMHC) at East Mississippi State Hospital.

2004. Completed four-year (2-1/2 class hours per week) Education for Ministry course by extension from The School of Theology at The University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee.

 

Employment
(Teaching, Research, Medical Practice)
 o

1956-1957 (15 months). Between my freshman and sophomore years at LMU I worked as a mechanical draftsman for a pressure vessel design and manufacture company in Los Angeles, California.

1957-1959. During my junior and senior years at LMU I taught first and second year high-school makeup algebra and plane geometry classes for freshmen deficient in those courses.

1958 and 1959 (summers). Employed as a mechanical draftsman for Sanford Process Company in Los Angeles, California.

1960 (summer). Employed as a draftsman in the Engineering Department at Eastman Kodak in Kingsport, Tennessee.

1962-1964. During the third year of my graduate program I taught a freshman physics course at Bellhaven College in Jackson, Mississippi. During the fourth year of my graduate program I taught a sophomore physics course at Mississippi College in Clinton, Mississippi.

1964 (October). With the beginning rank of Assistant Professor, I joined Dr. Guyton's department of Physiology and Biophysics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center and remained in that department until 1977, having obtained the rank of professor. During part of this time I was the Director of the Mississippi Biomedical Engineering Program, a joint program among the University of Mississippi Medical Center, the University of Mississippi School of Engineering, and Mississippi State University College of Engineering.

1975-1976. Consultant for basic science development for the James H. Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, Tennessee.

1977. Moved my primary department to Family Medicine at the University of Mississippi School of Medicine where I remained until 1992, having worked my way up to professor in that department as well. During this time I was Research Division Director.

1989. Because of the teaching in the substance abuse curriculum I did in the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, I was granted a faculty appointment at the rank of associate professor in that department.

1987-1991. As part of my faculty role in the Department of Family Medicine, I served as Medical Director for Mississippi Baptist Chemical Dependency Center, the oldest and largest alcohol/drug treatment program in the state. During that time I established, and was the primary faculty for, a very successful one year Addiction Medicine Fellowship that was available to those who completed family medicine, psychiatry, internal medicine, or pediatrics residencies.

1960-1992. I did research on a variety of topics dealing with the human respiratory system (funded by The National Institutes of Health and The National Aeronautics and Space Administration), as well as research in the family medicine area. I have taught undergraduate students (mathematics and physics), medical students (medical physiology), nursing students (nursing physiology), graduate students (various physiology, biophysics, and biomedical engineering courses), residents (family medicine, psychiatry), and fellows (addiction medicine).

1992-1996. Staff physician at Laurel Wood Center (private practice). Addictionist and Medical Director for Chemical Dependency Services. Primary medical consultant for psychiatric staff. Also had addiction medicine consulting privileges at Rush Foundation Hospital, Jeff Anderson Regional Medical Center, and Riley Memorial Hospital.

1996-2000. Staff Physician at East Mississippi State Hospital. Addictionist for the Alcohol and Drug Program, primary medical consultant for psychiatrists and other medical staff, and physician for the Acute Medical Unit.

 

Current Status

 
1992. Retired from the faculty of the University of Mississippi School of Medicine with the ranks of Professor of Family Medicine, Professor of Physiology and Biophysics, and Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behavior. At the time of my retirement I was board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine and certified in addiction medicine by the American Society of Addiction Medicine. Moved to Meridian, Mississippi to do private practice.

2000. After five years in private practice in Meridian, Mississippi and four years of doing addiction medicine and general medicine at East Mississippi State Hospital, I permanently retired, except for reading, writing (fiction and nonfiction), working out, web design, teaching three computer course for adults, giving an occasional presentation, and various other hobbies.
