S P E C I A L A DV E RT I S I N G S E C T I O N HOW DOES MIDDLE GEORGIA LABS IMPROVE LIVES? We improve lives by having rapid access to testing, resulting in better quality of care and outcomes. YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED THAT: Middle Georgia Labs was created be- cause one of our nurses became ill with COVID-19 and could not get timely test- ing. This drove us to create our own lab to serve the community, allowing us to be leaders and innovators in healthcare. WHAT IS A MYTH YOU WISH PEOPLE WOULD GET OVER? People believe that COVID-19 is going away, that they do not need to protect themselves, and that we do not need to take safety precautions. We can overcome this by educating the community and pro- viding scientific data. WHAT DOES 'LIVING WELL' MEAN? In this current environment, living well is adhering to common sense. Behaviors such as wearing a mask, social distancing and hypervigilance in not getting others sick will help us all to live well. It is about looking out for your fellow man. WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF? The people in our organization. We have created a great, professional team. 2021 Live Well BILL KNOPF, M.D. MIDDLE GEORGIA LABS 6070 LAKESIDE COMMONS DRIVE, MACON 478-449-1131 MIDGALABS.COM SUBMITTED PHOTO 62 maconmagazine.com | DECEMBER/JANUARY 2021
