“Footprints from the past along a pathway toward the future.”
This is not just a catch phrase, but a reminder of a tradition. Graduates of the Internal Medicine and Medicine-Pediatrics residency programs and Internal Medicine fellowship programs at Greenville Hospital System University Medical Center are part of a rich heritage that began with the formidable leadership of William “Putt” Pryor, MD, the first academic chairman of the Department of Medicine.
After 30 years of offering post-graduate training, the department is starting an alumni association, the Pryor Society . Pryor Society membership includes past graduates of Internal Medicine and Medicine-Pediatrics residency programs, Internal Medicine fellowship programs, as well as current and past Internal Medicine faculty.
To receive information on the Pryor Society or upcoming events, please call (864)455-8973.
