“You don’t have to be in a big city to accomplish something exciting. I could have chosen
any number of places to live and work, but don’t think I could have found a more advanced and integrated medical and
industrial environment, more recreational opportunities, or
friendlier people than in eastern North Carolina.”
“We had great support from the University, the City of Greenville, and many local leaders...
We feel a sense of ‘community’ here in
Pitt County and Greenville.” - Dr. Kalinowski
