This powerful documentary shines a light on the unique challenges—and the incredible people—behind rural healthcare in Georgia. We’re especially proud to see Coffee Regional Medical Center, our own Dr. Justin Peterson, and Coffee County native Garrett Street, PharmD, a third-year Mercer University School of Medicine student, featured as part of this important story.
