MARIETTA, Ga. – Former University of Georgia gymnast Kathy McMinn has grown accustomed to suiting up in full COVID-19 gear. The first four-year UGA All-American in any sport is now a Critical Care and Pulmonary Medicine doctor with the Wellstar Medical Group, treating the coronavirus on the frontlines.
The Weaver, Ala., native earned her doctoral degree from the University of Alabama-Birmingham School of Medicine in 1989. McMinn was the 2008 recipient of the Bill Hartman Award, one of the highest honors given to a former UGA athlete.
