Greene County Health Care CEO Doug Smith has announced his retirement from the organization he has led for 26 years. His retirement is effective May 6, 2022.

Greene County Health Care (GCHC) is a community health center system with sites in Greene, Pitt and Pamlico counties. The GCHC network includes Snow Hill Medical Center, Kate B. Reynolds Medical Center and Greene Dental Services, in Snow Hill, Walstonburg Medical Center in Walstonburg, James D. Bernstein Community Health Center and Bernstein Dental Services in Greenville, and Pamlico Community Health Center and Pamlico Dental Services in Bayboro.

Under Doug’s direction, Greene County Health Care has grown into a network of community health centers serving 17 counties in eastern North Carolina. GCHC’s services have expanded to include providing care to thousands of migrant farmworkers and high school and elementary school students through mobile services programs. Smith also developed and operated a system of health center-controlled networks. These networks provide health and dental records and a practice management system all intended to centralize patient data and improve the care process.

“Greene County Health Care is where we are today because of Doug Smith’s leadership and devotion to caring for the people in our communities,” says GCHC Board Chairman Bobby Nimmo. "We thank him for his leadership and his commitment to offering high quality, affordable and integrated care to our communities."
