VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO CONGRATULATE GREENVILLE'S MARGARET L. WYATT, M.D., P.A., UPON THE OCCASION OF HER RETIREMENT, TO COMMEND HER FOR HER MANY YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE AS A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL, AND TO WISH HER MUCH HAPPINESS AND FULFILLMENT IN ALL HER FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the South Carolina Senate honors those individuals who give tirelessly of themselves to the welfare of this great state's citizenry; and
Whereas, Greenville native Dr. Margaret L. Wyatt, retiring pediatric physician, stands among their number as an outstanding public benefactor, one much admired in her role as both medical doctor and exemplar in her profession; and
Whereas, young Margaret graduated from Greenville Senior High School in 1953. In further preparation for her life's work, in 1957 she earned her bachelor's degree in premedicine at Virginia's College of William & Mary, followed in 1961 by an M.D. at the Medical University of South Carolina. During all four years of medical school, she served as secretary-treasurer of her class. In addition, she was a member of Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society and, upon graduating in the top ten percent of her class, received a citation from the American Medical Women's Association for scholastic achievement; and
Whereas, having completed an internship at the University of Virginia Hospital in Charlottesville (1961-1962) and a pediatric residency at the University of North Carolina Hospital Chapel Hill (1962-1964), Dr. Wyatt served a one-year fellowship in allergic disease at the University of North Carolina Hospital (1964-1965); and
Whereas, in 1965, Dr. Wyatt began a private pediatric practice in Greenville that for nearly half a century has continued to earn her the high esteem of the patients she serves. Also in 1965, Dr. Wyatt joined the active staff of the Greenville Health System Department of Pediatrics and the St. Francis Hospital Department of Pediatrics, both of which institutions she has served since that time; and
Whereas, from her earliest days as a physician, Dr. Wyatt has received recognition as a distinguished medical practitioner. Her honors range from inclusion in the 1966 edition of Outstanding Young Women of America to receiving the 2007 Greenville Health System Pediatrician of the Year Award and 2012 March of Dimes Excellence in Medicine Award; and
Whereas, the Senate, grateful for the legacy of consistent commitment and excellence Dr. Wyatt has bestowed on the people of South Carolina, takes great pleasure in wishing her well as she enters retirement on March 14, 2014, and trusts she will find much enjoyment in the more leisurely pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate Greenville's Margaret L. Wyatt, M.D., P.A., upon the occasion of her retirement, commend her for her many years of dedicated service as a medical professional, and wish her much happiness and fulfillment in all her future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Dr. Margaret L. Wyatt.
