An East Carolina University physician has earned a statewide honor for his hard work to deliver health care to underserved populations and a plan to help children manage their asthma.
Dr. Thomas G. Irons, ECU associate vice chancellor for regional health services and a professor of pediatrics at the Brody School of Medicine at ECU, has been named a North Carolina Champion of Change in Medicine, along with Pitt County Memorial Hospital's pediatric asthma management program.
Another project championed by Irons is the 15,000-square-foot, $2.8 million James D. Bernstein Community Health Center under construction along N.C. 33 West. Irons estimates 20,000 people annually would receive primary care, dental care and pharmacy services from full-time staff and volunteers.
