Andrew Sanders graduated from the University of Maryland School of Medicine in 1981. His residency in Internal Medicine was done at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.  In 1984 he and his young family moved to Madigan Army Medical Center where he served on the teaching staff until he left active military service in 1988.  Dr. Sanders and his family then moved to Augusta, GA to begin a private practice career in Internal Medicine and Critical Care Medicine.  Except for a period of time in Saudi Arabia when the Army called him back into active duty,  Dr. Sanders and his family have lived in Augusta.

 

Shortly after arriving in Augusta, Dr. Sanders helped begin a Bible Study Fellowship chapter for men in Augusta.  He served as the teaching leader for that ministry for its initial eleven years.  Around the year 2000 the Lord began leading Dr. Sanders into more focused ministry to his colleagues.  At that time he cut his practice in half and began serving as Augusta’s first Area Director for CMDA.  He became very active leading mission trips for CMDA (Global Health Outreach), and in helping to develop the spiritual ministry that GHO seeks to have with all its participants.  In 2005 he left his practice to begin doing this ministry work full time. 

 

Dr. Sanders is married to Ilene.  They have 5 children, ranging from 26 to 13.  Their family has been blessed with two daughter-in-laws over the past few years.
