About SJSM Alumni Association
Saint James School of Medicine is an international medical school with campuses on the Caribbean islands of Anguilla and St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

The overall objective of the SJSM AA is to promote unity, awareness and comradery amongst the many graduates. At the end of their education, the real journey begins into medicine. As Saint James School of Medicine grows, our Alumni Association grows in importance. Congratulations on completing the rigorous journey of Medical School.

Demi Wolford M.D.
General Ambasador
Throughout her time at Saint James School of Medicine, Demi utilized any free time she had to become involved in the community, both on campus and on the island. As a class representative for the Red Cross, she was able to participate in events that focused on the communities’ health on the island.
She was also a member of the American Medical Student Association (AMSA), Student Government Association (SGA), and the Anguilla Animal Rescue Foundation (AARF). Demi did not stop there; she noticed that there was a lack of on-campus organizations, outside of medicine, that interested her. She took that information and created clubs that piqued her interest, such clubs include a glee club (The KeTones) and a spin cycling group (The SJSM Spin Superstars).
Denny Goss M.D.
General Ambasador
Dr. Denny Goss is from Southwestern Virginia and is currently working as an Emergency Room physician and Hospitalist at Carilion Tazewell Community Hospital, Tazewell, VA. He received his undergraduate degree from University of Virginia at Wise then went on to complete a master’s degree at University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
Therese Massri M.D.
General Ambasador
Growing up in Canada, Therese was a curious individual, fascinated with the elusive nature of the human body and outer space – both of which provided a wide array of intellectual challenges to problems that require scientific reasoning and critical thinking skills to solve. However, it was her empathetic nature that drew her to the medical field. While Therese’s academic strengths have not only served her well in being an outstanding student, they also allowed her to provide academic assistance to her peers as a Pathology teaching Assistant. She is passionate about teaching and helping just as much as she is about learning. She sat on the executive board of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Prep Club and spearheaded various projects, such as organizing nationwide health screening clinics for underprivileged residents alongside the Ministry of Health and the American Medical Student Association (AMSA).
Help SJSM Grow!
For over 20 years Saint James School of Medicine has been preparing students for the field of medicine. Over the years SJSM became a known name in the field of medical education. This was in large part due to the good word put out by our students and graduates in their communities. Since about 30% of the newly enrolled students come from referrals, SJSM has put together a referral program that is meant to reward the alumni from referring a student into the program.
