Medical College of Georgia Alumni Center
A Teacher First...
The W. H. Pool Jr. Society was formed in 2005 to honor the contributions of
Dr. W. H. Pool Jr., Professor Emeritus and chair of the MCG Department of
Radiology from 1974-87. Dr. Pool, a 1952 School of Medicine graduate,
completed his residency at MCG, then served on the faculty for all but two
years from 1957-90.
The senior class of the School of Medicine presented him with Teaching
Excellence Awards each year from 1968-71. He was also noted as an excellent
educator by the radiology residents of the class of 1989 and the family
medicine residents of the class of 1985. He is a member of the MCG
President’s Club.
Dr. Pool lives in his hometown of Atlanta, where he enjoys volunteering,
painting
and spending time with his children and grandchildren in the family lake
house on Lake Rabun.
