MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT/CEO
In 2016, Tift Regional Health System celebrates 75 years of providing quality care and
compassion. The 35-bed Tift County Hospital, located in Tifton at the corner of 12th Street
and Tift Avenue, was formally dedicated on February 7, 1941. This building is now the
Pickett Building, home of the Tift County Health Department.
In 1962, the Tift County Hospital Authority was created to assume the responsibilities of the hospital board. By 1965,
the county had outgrown Tift County Hospital and the Hospital Authority members sought to develop a new medical
facility on 20 acres of land on East 18th Street in Tifton. Tift General Hospital, the only facility in the county named for
Captain H.H. Tift, opened with 85 beds on November 1, 1965, with a medical staff of 14 doctors.
From there, Tift General Hospital rapidly grew to meet the growing needs of Tift and 11 surrounding counties, recruiting
a wide range of physicians and undergoing several expansions, renovations, and additions over the years. In 2000,
the Tift County Hospital Authority approved to change the name of the 181-bed Tift General Hospital to Tift Regional
Medical Center (TRMC), to officially take effect in January 2001.
Today, there is Tift Regional Health System, consisting of TRMC and the TRMC West Campus in Tifton, Cook Medical
Center in Adel, and Tift Regional Physician Group with clinics located throughout south central Georgia. We offer 165
physicians and 100 midlevel providers representing more than 30 specialties. We are also a founding partner of Stratus
Healthcare, a clinically integrated network of hospitals, physicians, and other providers from around the state.
The success and growth of our healthcare institution can be attributed to the skill and benevolence of our people, who carry
a proud heritage of serving the community. We remain committed to providing you and your loved ones with exceptional
medical services. Thanks for allowing us to be your hospital system, your neighbor, and your partner in health care.
Sincerely,
William T. Richardson, FACHE

Highlights
TRHS WELCOMES 15 NEW PHYSICIANS To meet
the growing healthcare needs of the community, TRHS
welcomed 15 new physicians to its medical staff in 2015.
Specialties include anesthesiology, family medicine,
gastroenterology, general surgery, hospital medicine,
infectious diseases, neurology, pediatrics, podiatry,
psychiatry,
and radiation
oncology.
In addition,
TRHS opened
a new practice
in September
called Affinity
Physicians for Women with obstetrician/gynecologist
Shannon Price, MD. For more information about
Tift Regional’s new and established doctors, please see the
Physician Listing section or visit www.tiftregional.com
and click on “Find a Physician.”
NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH GEORGIA SPORTS
MEDICINE TRHS has acquired Georgia Sports
Medicine and Orthopedic Clinic in Tifton, as well
as its ambulatory surgery center, and now employs
the practice’s orthopedic surgeons, orthopedic spine
specialist, non-physician providers, and office staff. The
physicians at Georgia Sports Medicine include
James Scott, MD, Bill Smith, MD, Edward Hellman, MD,
and David Banks, MD. TRHS is currently recruiting an
additional orthopedist to join the group. The practice’s
ambulatory surgery center, formerly known as Tiftarea
Surgical Partners, LLC, is now called the Tift Regional
Outpatient Surgery Center. For more information, visit
www.TRMCortho.com or call (229) 386-5222.
NEW WOUND CARE & HYPERBARIC CLINIC NOW
OPEN The new Tift Regional Wound Care & Hyperbaric
Clinic provides comprehensive treatment for non-healing
wounds. Patients can be referred by a healthcare provider,
but self-referred patients are also accepted. The Tift
Regional Wound Care & Hyperbaric Clinic is located at
Tifton Physicians Center, 907 E. 18th Street, Suite 140,
Tifton. For more information, visit www.tiftregional.com
or call (229) 353-HEAL (4325).
NEW CUTTING-EDGE PULMONARY MEDICINE
PROCEDURES TRMC and the pulmonologists with
Affinity Clinic offer two new state-of-the-art tools to
help patients with respiratory disease issues. The first,
bronchial thermoplasty (BT), is a minimally-invasive
4
[229] 382-7120 or 1-800-648-1935
bronchoscopic procedure that delivers thermal energy to
the airway wall in a precisely controlled manner to reduce
excessive airway smooth muscle (ASM). This helps reduce
attacks in adult patients with severe asthma and is shown
to improve asthma-related quality of life for people living
with the disease. TRMC also has the new Veran SPiNView
Thoracic Navigation System, an electromagnetic navigation
platform that allows Affinity Clinic pulmonologists to biopsy
solitary pulmonary nodules for the potential early diagnosis
of lung cancer. This is the only navigation system that
provides visualization, accurate navigation and real-time
confirmation of nodule location. For more information
about these procedures and our pulmonologists, visit
www.tiftregional.com or call (229) 353-7526.
LINX SYSTEM PROVIDES RELIEF FOR THOSE
SUFFERING FROM ACID REFLUX General and bariatric
surgeon Christopher Smith, MD, is performing a new
procedure at TRMC to reduce the effects of gastroesophageal
reflux disease (GERD), commonly known as heartburn
or acid reflux. The new LINX system offered by Dr. Smith
at TRMC is a small, flexible band of magnets enclosed in
titanium beads and connected by titanium wires. Dr. Smith
implants the LINX System around the weak esophageal
sphincter, just above the stomach. The magnetic attraction
between the beads keeps the weak esophageal sphincter
closed to help prevent reflux. Swallowing forces the beads to
separate temporarily to allow food and liquid to pass into the
stomach. Dr. Smith performs evaluations at Affinity Clinic in
Tifton. For more information about the LINX procedure at
TRMC, visit www.tiftregional.com or call (229) 353-2263.
HEART AND VASCULAR CENTER OFFERS NEW
RADIAL LOUNGE The TRMC Heart and Vascular
Center recently opened a new lounge that allows cardiac
catheterization outpatients to recover in a more comfortable
and attractive environment, minimizing the feeling of
“hospitalization” and avoiding the need to access a hospital
bed. Radial access is a cardiac catheterization technique in
which the cardiologist inserts the catheter through the wrist.
Visit www.tiftregional.com to learn more about the Heart and
Vascular Center and our cardiologists.
TRMC LEADS THE WAY IN TELEMEDICINE TRMC
launched its telemedicine program eight years ago and
has had more than 900 telemedicine encounters each
year. The health system has been hailed as a “front
runner” by the Georgia Partnership for TeleHealth (GPT)
and was named a GPT “Partner of the Year.” TRMC
currently offers telemedicine connections to school-based
clinics in three counties, as well as the health sciences
center at ABAC. TRMC also provides telemedicine
connections to pediatric subspecialists (such as
pediatric gastroenterology and pediatric endocrinology),
psychiatry, stroke management, and more. To learn more,
call (229) 353-6520.
A UNIQUE APPROACH TO JOINT REPLACEMENT
AND SPINE CARE The Tift Regional Joint Replacement
& Spine Care Center offers specialized treatment for
patients recovering from total joint replacement and spine
surgery. With a comprehensive educational program,
this specialized inpatient unit at TRMC is specifically
dedicated to
helping patients
overcome pain
and restore
mobility. The
goal is to
involve patients
and family
members in
treatment every step of the way to ensure optimal recovery.
Developed in collaboration with orthopedic surgeons,
nurses, therapists, and case managers, this unique
program focuses on a plan of care tailored to each patient’s
needs. To learn more, visit www.TRMCortho.com or call
(229) 353-BONE (2663).
CANCER CENTER EXPANSION TRHS has been
making progress on its expansion of the Anita Stewart
Oncology Center, which provides treatment for area
cancer patients. Located in Tifton at 1623 Madison Ave.,
the center is adding 4,667 square feet of space and
renovating 4,204 square feet of space for chemotherapy
and hematology services. The project is expected to be
completed in spring 2016. A new linear accelerator for
radiation therapy will also be added in the coming year.
Visit www.tiftregional.com to learn more about the Anita
Stewart Oncology Center.
TREATMENT FOR VARICOSE VEINS Radiologist
Carl Stalvey, MD, is now offering a non-surgical laser
procedure at TRMC to treat varicose veins. If you are
one of more than 25 million Americans who suffer from
varicose veins, you may benefit from this treatment. The
procedure is safe and virtually painless and requires little
to no downtime. A provider referral is required. For more
information, visit www.tiftregional.com or call the TRMC
Radiology Department at (229) 353-6966.
