2026 WVSOM Graduation

It was a day where engagement was high. On May 1, members of the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine’s (WVSOM) Class of 2026 crossed the graduation stage following a keynote address by a renowned social media medical influencer, closing one of the most demanding chapters of their lives and opening another defined by service to patients.

For 183 new physicians, the Commencement Ceremony followed years spent in anatomy labs, lectures and hospitals, where they trained to diagnose illness and improve patients’ health. In the weeks and months ahead, graduates will scatter to residency programs across the state and nation.
