Why not just expand the GHS Graduate Medical Education program instead of expanding the medical school campus?
An expanded medical education program will emphasize primary care throughout all four years of medical education. Expanding the existing program to a four-year medical school campus in Greenville enhances our ability to influence, retain and place medical trainees in areas affected by shortages, such as primary care. In other words, as a practical, philosophical and economical matter, we will be contributing to getting doctors to help South Carolinians day by day in their local environments.
