Biography
Family Medicine
Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine
Hello! My name is John Bissett and I am excited to be part of the Coastal Family Medicine team. I was born and raised in Wilmington, NC and I am glad to be back home. I attended UNCW for undergraduate training and then graduated from Nova Southeastern University medical school in 2016.
As a recipient of the Navy’s Health Professions Scholarship, I was called up to active duty after finishing medical school. Upon completing my Internal Medicine internship at Naval Medical Center in Portsmouth, Virginia I served as a Naval medical officer (GMO) until 2021.
Having practiced in many roles and lived all over the map, I could not be happier to start my new journey in Novant New Hanover’s family medicine residency. I am honored and humbled to treat patients here in my hometown and know that I am among like-minded, passionate leaders at Coastal Family Medicine.
Outside of medicine, I enjoy fishing, reading, movies, and hanging out with my family.
