Drug center may post losses at Greenville facility
The Phoenix Center faces financial strain from lawsuits and payroll issues while aiming to raise private donations. Interim director Linda Doud says the $6 million budget will dip this year, funded by a $483,000 reserve, with services continuing. Board disputes are noted as county officials weigh redirecting nearly $5 million in funding as they review management and finances. The center serves 3,000 to 4,000 patients annually and plans adolescent programs.

Lunch Buddies program gives USC medical students patient contact
At the Medical University of South Carolina, first year students like Barclay Stewart and Rashim Gupta run a Lunch Buddies program at Children’s Hospital. They meet with young patients during lunch to discuss life and medicine, building empathy beyond biochemistry. The effort mirrors a Florida program and may expand to dinners as current students gain early primary care exposure.
