Building community through better health As the OB/GYN program grows alongside Regional One Health’s plans for a new hospital, Dr. Schorge is excited to play a role in strengthening the community he now calls home. Since moving to Memphis, he’s enjoyed Grizzlies basketball, live blues music, and traveling to sites including Nashville, Civil War memorials, and Eureka Springs. “Memphis feels like a small town, and I’ve been reminded of how friendly people are in the south. They’re very gracious, including the patients we’re incredibly privileged to serve,” he said. “They are so appreciative about being treated like everybody should be treated.” Dr. Schorge looks forward to the opportunity to continue to build on that philosophy as Regional One Health plans for its new hospital designed to meet the growing needs of the Mid-South. “You don’t want to feel like people are left out of the system. You’d like to think that we as a society have the courage to provide the same level of care and appreciate human dignity across the board,” Dr. Schorge said. “At Regional One Health, we know patients deserve the highest level of care, and that’s what we provide for them.” To support Regional One Health, visit regionalonehealthfoundation.org REGIONAL ONE HEALTH FOUNDATION 23
