“I have a great professional and personal privilege, and that is to recognize a remarkable health care leader — not just in Memphis, but a leader for this state — who wears his passion for healthcare right on his sleeve,” said UTHSC Chancellor Dr. Peter Buckley (left) about Dr. Scott Morris (right). “And he has given his all.” (Patrick Lantrip/The Daily Memphian)
