Beebe Healthcare Welcomes Inaugural Class of Resident Physicians!

July 18, 2023

Beebe Healthcare is proud to welcome four Family Medicine resident physicians to the organization. On 7/13/23, the new residents received their white coats in a ceremony held at the Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing. It was a historic moment in Beebe’s 107 year history! The residency program will give these physicians a place to call home as they fulfill their educational requirements and pursue invaluable experiential learning opportunities in the clinical environment. In tandem, it will offer tremendous benefits to the people of Sussex County who rely on Beebe for their care. Once fully staffed, the Family Medicine Residency will facilitate a minimum of 7,000 additional primary care appointments for our patients. This translates to increased access to timely care for people with a wide range of medical issues and needs.

Beebe’s first class of residents includes: 

  • Jacob Valvis, DO, who is from Hockessin and Wilmington, Delaware, and completed medical school at PCOM.
  • Harrison Eckert, DO, who is from Orefield, Pennsylvania and graduated from PCOM.
  • Monica Javadian, MD, who is from Aarhus, Denmark and Northern Virginia, and completed medical school at the American University of the Caribbean.
  • Sofia Perez Delgado, DO, who is from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and Tampa Bay, Florida, and also graduated from PCOM.
