As a first-generation college graduate, Charles R. Cosby, DO, knows the value of hard work. It’s something he prides himself on, and, even outside of his profession and education, he chooses hobbies that require him to be strong-willed – woodworking, mixed martial arts and working on cars. Now, he’s bringing that same attitude to Northeast Georgia Physicians Group (NGPG) Toccoa Clinic, where he says he’ll work hard for his patients and the community.
“There’s something really special about this community that makes it an easy place to care about,” Dr. Cosby said. “And there’s something special about NGPG Toccoa Clinic, too. It feels like family and I’m excited to be a part of it.”
Dr. Cosby earned his bachelor’s degree from Georgia College and State University in Milledgeville and went on to earn his medical degree from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Suwanee, Georgia. He then completed a family medicine residency at Wellstar MCG Health in Augusta, Georgia.
When he’s not at work, Dr. Cosby enjoys spending time with his high school sweetheart, who is now his wife, and their two children. He also enjoys hunting and fishing whenever he can get to the woods or out on the lake. Dr. Cosby can also play the mandolin and once won a talent show as the lead singer in a rock band.
NGPG Toccoa Clinic is open Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and is located at 58 Big A Road. Call 706-886-3148 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Cosby, or visit ngpg.org/cosby to learn more.
