President’s Corner- Focus on Your Health

Last Updated: October 25, 2023Categories: 2023, General, Newsletter, President1.2 min read

I hope September is going well for you.  This month is the beginning of fall flu season and COVID.  Please take care of yourselves.  

September is women’s physician month and physician suicide prevention month.  Please focus on your physical and mental health- reserve time to pause and rest.  If you or a colleague are struggling, please get in touch with a mentor or the physician’s health line.  You are an essential part of health care, and we want to uplift physicians and reduce burnout.

Thanks to all who worked hard to support the Lowcountry Jazz Festival and Closing the Gap in Health Care.  Physicians came together to enjoy great music and support a great cause.  Dr. Thadeus Bell was honored, and he got to present a scholarship to a MUSC student whose focus is disparities in healthcare.  Save the date for next year’s fantastic festival.

Our next Medical Mingle is scheduled for September 16th from 6-8 p.m. at Taco Boy Charleston.  Also, save the date for the 2023 Annual Meeting and dinner on November 16th from 6-9 p.m. The Meeting will take place at the Mt Pleasant Cooper River Room.  We have a great speaker lined up!  

Thanks for all you do.  We appreciate the CCMS Board members, our IT Manager, Tom Steenhuysen, and our Administrator, Tracey Waring.
