All
physicians at Highlands-Cashiers Hospital are Board Certified. This
means that our physicians have gone beyond the minimum competency
requirements to diagnose and treat patients and have voluntarily
completed ongoing, rigorous testing and evaluation within their
specialty. This means that the physicians at HCH have an established
record of experience, skill and knowledge. Now, they are offering to
share that knowledge in a series of Lunch and Learns.
