It’s like April Fool’s every day!

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the major advertisers in Augusta’s healthcare market for their support of the Medical Examiner. These are organizations – University Health System, GRU-slash-MCG, Doctors Hospital, Trinity Hospital and others – with HUGE advertising budgets. They’re in the Chronicle almost daily, in Augusta Magazine and Columbia County Magazine, in the Metro Spirit, Augusta Family, …

Where’s the bone?

What bone? The one that was thrown to the Augusta community when GRU announced that it heard the public outcry to Save The A. That they would include Augusta in the name of the new university formed by the consolidation of Augusta State University and Georgia Health Sciences University. Well, they did save the A, technically, even if was only …

SUGGESTION BOX #2

We visit more than 500 doctors offices at least twice a month, along with deliveries to 14 area hospitals. We see things.

RENAME DR. AZZIZ UPDATE!

Thanks to the thousands of ordinary, lowly Augustans who have submitted suggestions to rename GHSU’s exalted leader, Dr. Ricardo Azziz. He is so far above us all, yet we have the opportunity to rename him. Is this a great city or what? So please don’t miss your chance to take part in history. Vote on a name already submitted (see …
