MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Project Access West Tennessee commends and appreciates The Urology Group for committing to care for new PAWT patients monthly. Memphis Medical Society board member and The Urology Group physician, Walter Rayford, PhD, MD, MBA, was the first participating physician.

Once Dr. Rayford saw the first patient, the Group’s board of directors voted in favor of each physician taking one new PAWT patient a month. “It’s wonderful to have doctors and administrators like Dr. Rayford, Dr. Corr, and Phillip O’Malley supporting our program to serve our community,” says Scroggins. “We are glad to be able to offer this specialty to our patients and help them get appointments they previously had no access to. Partners like Christ Community and Church Health rely on us to help connect their uninsured patients to specialty clinics like The Urology Group, and we are grateful for their commitments to providing accessible healthcare.”

“Building these partnerships and commitments to volunteer care is the key to strengthening our healthcare community,” says Clint Cummins, MHA, CEO of The Memphis Medical Society and The Memphis Medical Foundation.

“Through PAWT’s efficient coordination of care and physicians giving of their time, we can see a real change in life for patients who need it the most,” Cummins says.
