Atrium Health, Wake Forest Baptist Health and Wake Forest University announced Wednesday that they plan to join in a deal that will bring a four-year medical school to Charlotte — a major announcement for a city that lacks such a campus but has long desired one.
The deal also means that the three groups will combine in a yet-to-be-determined way as a new health care system. The impact of that big change for patients was not immediately known.
The announcement came just several weeks after UNC Charlotte Chancellor Philip Dubois and the UNC School of Medicine dean wrote an Observer opinion column stating that now was not the right time to develop a four-year medical school in Charlotte, citing financial challenges.
Here is the link to the fall sports streaming schedule.

And us at Baptist are worried if this is more of a take over in the near future.

This won't be the end of Wake's investment in Charlotte! A Law School will be next. At least this is good for App that Harrisburg has been denied.
Charlotte Wins, Winston loses!

Re: New Medical School in Charlotte
If i was benevolent dictator, i would say that the area in most need of a medical school would be western NC, specifically looking at Asheville- could also serve upstate SC and Eastern Tennesee.
Central/Piedmont NC already has 3 outstanding med schools. If Charlotte has to have a med school, WF is 2nd best option after Duke Med IMO.
Hopefully App is reaching out to Wake to continue to grow Beaver College and expand the offerings.
