New Department Head
at Mountain East Medical Center
Bob
Wilkinson, Department of Purchasing Head at Mountain East Medical Center has
resigned. Assistant Head of Purchasing, Johnny Toler will take over as the new
department head, effective immediately.
Johnny
Toler has been with Mountain East for 13 years. His wife, Carolyn, is the
gynecology department head at MEMC and they have 2 children.
Toler
started his medical career in Pharmacology. He began as an assistant druggist
in the Mountain East Medical Center pharmacy 13 years ago and was moved to the
purchasing department as an assistant in 1978.
No
information was given as to why Bob Wilkinson has made the decision to resign
on such short notice. All that can be said is that he did good work while he
was here, and there is to be no bad blood between executives.
Hospital
administrator Harry Illscott said: “Bob’s abilities will be greatly missed at
this hospital, but I know that Johnny Toler is a person we can all depend on to
do whatever is necessary to keep this department going. I have great faith in
him and in this hospital.”
Johnny
Toler was quick to make a statement of his own: “This hospital means a great
deal to me and my family, and I will give my best efforts to making our
purchasing department the best. I learned from a fine man –-Bob Wilkinson-- and
I hope I can continue to build on the foundation he established.”

information about Johnny Toler and the Mountain East Medical Center Departments
