 In 1948, the founders of
the Greenbrier Clinic reasoned that healthy people make for
healthy corporations.
To ensure the good health of the nation’s top executives,
the Clinic was formed with the objective of providing complete
diagnostic healthcare within the luxurious setting of the
world famous Greenbrier resort. Since that time, the Greenbrier
Clinic
has provided diagnostic and preventive medical care to thousands
of executives and health conscious individuals.
The Greenbrier Clinic is located in the West Virginia wing
of The Greenbrier resort and conference center. Each year,
thousands of people come to combine
a relaxing, luxurious holiday with the Clinic’s unparalleled diagnostic
evaluations. While it is not necessary to stay at The Greenbrier during a clinic
examination, the majority of patients elect to do so and take advantage of
the resort amenities. Visitors to the clinic have ample time to enjoy the Greenbrier
attractions, including the three championship golf courses and tennis facilities,
the Greenbrier Spa and the renowned Greenbrier cuisine. |
 WELLNESS
The idea of preventive health care is not new. Indeed, the history
of the Greenbrier Clinic proves that high quality preventive health
care for executives translates into sound business policy for the
corporations that employ them.
What is new, however, is the accuracy and efficiency
of the type of diagnostic health care offered by the Greenbrier
Clinic. The science
of diagnostic testing for early detection of disease has been profoundly
changed by technological advances. Unfortunately, recent changes
in the nation’s health care system, specifically a trend toward
managed health care, may make access to this type of care more difficult.
Early detection leads to a significant improvement in the rate of
cure. Preventive health care makes better sense than ever before.
Although most patients come to the Greenbrier Clinic with symptoms
or specific concerns about their health, some come to the Clinic
without any symptoms at all. Remarkably, even for those seemingly
healthy individuals, there is a relatively high yield of diagnosis. Moreover, the Clinic’s emphasis on personalized, participatory
health maintenance encourages patients to become involved in their
own health care. Visitors leave with a greatly increased awareness
of their own responsibility for well being. Even before leaving the
resort, visitors can begin their own personally tailored exercise
program, under the supervision of an exercise physiologist at The
Greenbrier Spa.
In a relaxed but highly efficient facility, corporations and
individuals have access to the technology and medical knowledge
to prevent or
cure many of the diseases that threaten health and productivity.
Working together, we have the resources to improve the quality
and length of life.
