Robert W. Pryor, MD, MBA President and CEO Scott & White Healthcare Alfred B. Knight, MD President Scott & White Healthcare Foundation A partnership for the greater good loyalty and support you’ve shown Scott & White Healthcare during T he the past decade have been phenomenal. Your belief in us, in our ability to heal your loved ones and friends, and to reach out to areas where people once found it difficult to access healthcare excellence, has strengthened our resolve to do everything we can to help everyone lead healthy, productive lives. Thanks to your generous support, we’re beginning to close that gap with new locations, expanded expertise, and big dreams for the future. Your actions have helped bring to life the most ambitious dream we’ve ever had—to raise $100 million to meet the increased healthcare needs of the communities we serve. We never underestimated your desire to help us reach this goal. In fact, because of you, we surpassed it. Because of your enthusiasm and commitment, we’ve been able to transform healthcare delivery in Central Texas. In this issue you’ll read more about our efforts, including how technology is helping caregivers shape patients’ lives like never before, and about one patient’s courage to face a difficult diagnosis. The healthcare experts at Scott & White and our core supporters are like interlocking pieces of a complex puzzle. Each piece plays an important role in the completion of the whole picture. With you beside us, we know we can achieve anything! Robert W. Pryor, MD, MBA President and CEO, Scott & White Healthcare Nancy L.
