A t no time in Scott & White’s history has it been as exciting as now!
Advances in medical technology, treatment and disease detection are
resulting in an improved quality of life for so many people. Our leadership
is more committed than ever to bringing the advanced care you deserve to the people
of Central Texas. Our focus on excellence is a bar that we continue to set high, and
will do so in the future.
You’ll learn more about what’s going on at Scott & White in this issue of THE
CATALYST. Advances in cancer research and GI disease detection, support for our
military through mental health services, and enhanced pediatric services are just a few
things. We’re especially proud that cardiologist J. James Rohack, MD is poised to take
the lead of the nation’s largest physician group, the American Medical Association, in
2009. And we’re most grateful to the Golden family, who donated nearly $1 million
to fund a pediatric endowed chair and professorship.
As 2009 begins, I’d like to thank all of you who have chosen Scott & White.
Whether it’s to be your healthcare provider, your place of employment or
volunteerism, or your charity of choice. During these tough economic times, we are
so grateful for the trust you place in Scott & White, and the role Scott & White plays
in your lives. You’ve inspired our achievements, and everything we do.
There is much more to look forward to as we grow and achieve our Vision of
becoming the most Trusted and the most Valued name in American Healthcare.
Much peace and joy to you and your families in the new year.
