Lisa K. Rollins, PhD
Associate Professor

I came to the Department of Family Medicine in August of 2000, after serving as the Coordinator of the Generalist Physician Initiative at the UVa School of Medicine for seven years. I have a PhD in Education from UVa, a Master’s degree in Exercise Physiology from the University of Texas at Austin, and a B.S. degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Cornell University.

My role in the department is wide-ranging. My educational activities focus around the residency program and faculty and include curriculum development, educational evaluation, and faculty development, as well as teaching a variety of workshops and seminar sessions. I work with faculty to facilitate scholarly activities and grant writing. I also have a number of administrative roles, including serving on the Department’s Cabinet, participating in a host of ad hoc projects, and facilitating communication within the department.

Charlottesville is a beautiful area and is one of the few places with an autumn to rival the many years of fall color I experienced growing up in New England. Additional interests include music, antiques, riding, rowing, and racquet sports. I enjoy life here with my four-legged companions:  my dogs Howie and Tucker, and my Portuguese horse, Nervo.
