VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO CONGRATULATE DAN ROBINSON, M.D., OF GREENWOOD COUNTY FOR BEING NAMED 2010 SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION SMALL BUSINESS PERSON OF THE YEAR RUNNER-UP FOR SOUTH CAROLINA.
Whereas, the South Carolina Senate is pleased to learn that Dan Robinson, M.D., of Greenwood County has been named the 2010 Small Business Administration Small Business Person of the Year runner-up for South Carolina; and
Whereas, in 1991, fresh out of his residency at Self Regional Hospital, Dan Robinson took over a clinic in Ninety Six as its sole practitioner. By 1994, he had recruited five additional physicians, and the clinic became Piedmont Family Medicine; and
Whereas, two years later, the clinic grew again to become Piedmont Health Group when Robinson led a merger with another practice. The creation of Piedmont Health Group not only increased service to the surrounding communities but also expanded the number of services offered to include other medical specialties; and
Whereas, in 2008, expanding once again, Piedmont Health Group opened the Tower Pointe Medical Center in Greenwood, which includes family medicine, neurology, a sleep center, and the area's first medical spa; and
Whereas, believing a man should be actively involved in his community, Dr. Robinson serves patients weekly at the Greater Greenwood United Ministries Free Clinic as a volunteer physician. He also serves on the advisory boards of Hospice Care of the Piedmont and Self Regional Healthcare-Home Health; and
Whereas, as one appreciative colleague put it, Dr. Robinson "is a bit of a paradox: a dedicated medical professional with an entrepreneurial spirit predicated on a desire to help others live well, regardless of their circumstances"; and
Whereas, recognizing the excellence of Dr. Robinson's example to other small-business entrepreneurs, the Senate takes great pleasure in honoring him for being named this year's Small Business Administration Small Business Person of the Year runner-up for South Carolina, and the members wish him every future success. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate Dan Robinson, M.D., of Greenwood County for being named 2010 Small Business Administration Small Business Person of the Year runner-up for South Carolina.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Dr. Dan Robinson.
