currently leading a campaign
in the Middle Georgia area to
raise funds for construction of
the Basic Science Building to
be located on the Mercer
campus. This facility will
house the medical library as
well as classrooms,
laboratories and faculty and
administrative offices. Ap
proximately $1.4 million has
been raised toward the $2
million goal.
The Mercer University
School of Medicine proposes to
alleviate the shortage of
physicians in the Middle
Georgia area and more
particularly the shortage and
maldistribution of physicians
rendering primary health
care services in this region.
The Medical School is plan
ning its curriculum and its
clinical programs to educate
and motivate its students to
pursue careers as primary
care physicians in shortage
areas.
An interesting feature of the
clinical program will be a
series of health access
stations, to be established in
rural areas which experience
a shortage of or inaccessibility
to primary health care.
