About Ronald Seymour Weaver, MD
Ronald Seymour Weaver, owner of Global Cardio Care Centers, was born in New York City in 1949. Dr. Weaver lived in a neighborhood where public schools could not provide the education his parents felt he should have, so in the 4th grade, he attended the United Nations International School in Manhattan. While there, he studied Latin and other courses in preparation for medical school.
Dr. Weaver graduated from Hobart College in 1970 and Cornell University Medical College in 1974; completed a medical internship in 1975 at Harlem Hospital, a Columbia University Teaching Hospital; and, became fully licensed to practice medicine in the summer of 1975.
To complete his Internal Medicine training, he transferred to the University of California, Los Angeles, UCLA. He had taken and passed the specialty boards to became board certified in Internal Medicine in 1977.
After his training, in internal medicine, Dr. Weaver began practice in the South Central Los Angeles and Inglewood communities of Southern California. He elected to forego his ambition as a lung specialist and remained in the community. His clinic in Inglewood’s African-American community has included hundreds of hours of free medical care to people who could not afford the treatments on their own.
Dr. Weaver is recently a vice chairman of the National Medical Association’s judicial council, the largest African American physician association in America.
