Saint James School of Medicine

Saint James School of Medicine The mission of Saint James School of Medicine is to help motivated students make their dreams of becoming a doctor a reality.

As the demand for qualified physicians escalates, the cost of medical education increases while medical schools limit the number of students. Saint James School of Medicine offers an affordable medical education to individuals throughout the world who wish to pursue their dream of a career in medicine. We are committed to training students to think, to solve problems, and to apply their knowledge

to the care and well being of their patients, and society. It is our belief that a high quality medical education should be affordable and accessible to everyone.

SJSM was honored to welcome Dr. Arthur L. “Bud” Burnett II, MD, MBA, FACS, internationally recognized urologist, researcher, educator, and Patrick C. Walsh Professor of Urology at Johns Hopkins University, for a special lecture at SJSM.

Dr. Burnett shared insight from a career that has shaped the future of men’s health, advanced surgical innovation, and transformed lives worldwide through pioneering nitric oxide research that contributed to therapies such as Vi**ra.
