Passing of Dr. Mary Wirshup

Dr. Mary Brennan Wirshup, CVIM’s Medical Director from 2001 – 2021, passed away on Sunday, February 6, 2022, surrounded by her loving family. Dr. Mary was an extraordinarily compassionate physician who found and spread joy and hope through her “dream job” at CVIM, caring for uninsured and underserved patients. She was a passionate champion of our healthcare equity mission and a fierce advocate for the patients we serve.  Mary was a friend to every CVIM patient, volunteer, and staff member, and an inspiration to all who knew her.

Dr. Mary’s commitment to and her impact on CVIM is immeasurable.  Our love and appreciation for Dr. Mary go far beyond what words can express. Her magnanimous spirit will always be with us at CVIM.  We will honor her life and preserve her legacy through enthusiastic, empathetic service.
