Dr. William Mangham is a native of Mobile, Alabama. He attended the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. 9/11 occurred during his sophomore year and inspired him to join the Marines, in which he served as an officer on three deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. This period of service included combat experience in Afghanistan's Korengal Valley and during the Iraq "surge" in 2007. After being honorably discharged as a captain, Dr. Mangham completed pre-med studies and entered medical school at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. Upon graduation in 2016, he began his residency in neurosurgery at the University of Tennessee and Semmes-Murphey Clinic in Memphis. Dr. Mangham served as chief resident from 2021-2022 and is currently completing a CAST-accredited spine fellowship during his PGY-7 year. Dr. Mangham will join the staff of Ochsner Health in New Orleans, Louisiana this summer and his practice will focus on minimally invasive spine surgery. Dr. Mangham enjoys spending time with his wife and three children, as well as reading, gardening, cooking, and exercise.
