Tribute

Dr. Michael Ingram, 61, of Panama City, Florida passed away Wednesday, April 17, 2019 at a local hospital.

Dr. Ingram grew up in Pike County Alabama and is the first physician in his family.  He attended the University of Alabama(Roll Tide!) from 1976-1980 where he obtained his undergraduate degree in Chemistry and English.  While at the University of Alabama, he was elected to several honor societies including Phi Beta Kappa.  He married his wife of now 39 years, Marian, between ending undergraduate and starting medical school.  He then was fortunate to do his medical training at the University of Alabama in Birmingham from 1980-1984 where he graduated AOA(Alpha Omega Alpha) in the top 2% of his class.  His specialty training was done at the University of Colorado from 1984-1988.  There he delivered many babies, became proficient at Gynecological surgery and even learned a little about snow skiing.  After leaving his training program, he and Marian moved to Dothan Alabama where he practiced with Women's Medical Center from 1988-1995.  While in Dothan he served as a Chairman of the Dept. of OB/GYN, as a liaison to the Alabama Board of Medicine regarding the practice of midwifery in the State of Alabama, and on the Board of the Wiregrass Children's Home.  Most importantly, his daughter Ashley was born in 1992 bringing great joy to his and Marian's life.
His medical practice in Florida began in 1995 when he was able to join the well established practice of Dr. Mark Wolf and was a founding member of Emerald Coast OBGYN.  This practice has continued to grow and add many new qualified and compassionate Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, and Certified Nurse Midwives with the support of our growing community.  Since moving to Panama City Dr. Ingram has served a Chairmanship of the Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Gulf Coast Hospital, served on the board of Bay County Youth Soccer Association and Bay United Soccer Club, and has actively coached girl’s soccer from ages 4 to 15. Dr. Ingram loved to fish and spend time with his friends and family.  He was a compassionate, generous, and skilled physician who cared very deeply for his patients.
