McGill University trained Anguillian Physician, Dr. Clyde Laurian Bryan, is now serving the people of the island at his Alantic Star Center of Medical Excellence at South Hill. The Internist opened his private practice on October 1, after completing a one-year contract with the Health Authority of Anguilla.

“My main motivation is to serve the people of Anguilla to my fullest potential and to be the master of my own destiny,” he said at the opening ceremony, attended mainly by family and friends. “It gives me the flexibility to concentrate on my areas of excellence and to refine and develop them to ensure that the public of Anguilla will always get the very best of what this center has to offer.”

Dr. Bryan said that like a ship, the Altantic Star Center, was launching out in rough and deep waters, but he welcomed the challenge. He pledged to work very closely with all of the existing health facilities and services in Anguilla to help provide excellent medical care to the people of the island.

He revealed that he was working towards creating an affiliation with McGill University and that so far two physicians there, who head their particular departments, had expressed an interest in providing specialist services at his medical center.

During the ceremony, short addresses of congratulations and good wishes were delivered by Mr. Joseph N Payne, Mr Quincy Gumbs, Dr. Bryan’s uncle and Nurse Irma Carty, a department head at the Princess Alexandra Hospital. Pastor John Gumbs, another uncle, delivered the Invocation.

The ribbon was cut by the Internist’s mother, Mrs. Verna Bryan, assisted by his wife, Gele and his father, Mr. Darwin Bryan.
