Congratulations to Dr. Eugene Muchnik on being honored this Doctor’s Day! Dr. Muchnik was nominated by his colleague, Dr. Renee Muchnik, who wrote, “Dr Muchnik goes above and beyond for his patients. He takes the time to clarify radiology and pathology reports in the midst of his busy day of 30 clinic patients to ensure that he gives his patient the best care possible. He sees every known type of cancer as a general oncologist and keeps up with the latest literature and chemo regimens. His ability to provide this exceptional care is phenomenal. He deserves the upmost recognition on this Doctor’s Day.”

On Saturday, members of the Lycoming County Medical Society gathered to celebrate the Society’s 175th Anniversary! 🥂 Chef Hosch treated the crowd to a beautiful social hour and dinner, complete with a champagne toast! A silent auction raised funds for the Society’s Scholarship Fund and we congratulated our most recent scholarship recipient, Rose Wascher. Representative Jamie Flick was on hand to present the Society with an official Citation from the Pennsylvania State House of Representatives celebrating the momentous occasion. Even a photo of past Society Presidents! A lovely evening was enjoyed by all in attendance.

This year, we celebrate the 28th year of the Lycoming County Medical Society Scholarship Fund's existence! Our Scholarship Trustees chose to award 2 deserving students from Lycoming County with a $4,400 award each. This year's recipients are Samantha Branton (class of 2028, enrolled at Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University), and Rose Wascher (class of 2029, enrolled at Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University). Both of these well-qualified and deserving applicants expressed their gratitude through letters of thanks to the Medical Society, each indicating that they intend to return to practice medicine in rural Pennsylvania. Since selecting the first scholarship recipient in 2002, the Lycoming County Scholarship Fund has granted awards to 37 medical students totaling $117,400 in scholarships! Congratulations to these outstanding medical students!
