Dr. Bias is an Internal Medicine specialist dedicated to providing comprehensive care for conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, and other chronic diseases. His goal is to help patients achieve better health through personalized, collaborative care.
He believes strong connections start with listening. By showing empathy and avoiding medical jargon, Dr. Bias ensures every visit is clear, thorough, and focused on the patient’s individual needs and goals.
In addition to caring for patients, he serves as core teaching faculty for the Transitional Year residency program, mentoring future physicians.
Before entering medicine, Dr. Bias served 21 years in the military—six years in the Navy and fifteen in the Army. His decision to become a physician grew from a lifelong commitment to service and a desire to give back to the community.
“I chose internal medicine for its versatility and because I enjoy caring for the whole patient—their medical, social, and physical needs,” he shares.
Dr. Bias earned his medical degree from Saba University School of Medicine and completed his residency at Memorial Health University Medical Center in Savannah, Georgia.
Outside of medicine, Dr. Bias is happily married, shares his home with seven rescue animals, and pursues his passion for environmental science and beekeeping.
