History of group / practice:

In 1910 Dr. Donald Guthrie brought the multi-specialty group practice model to Sayre, PA, from the Mayo Clinic where he performed his surgical residency. The success of this organization is based on the three values that Dr. Guthrie set forth: patient centeredness, teamwork and excellence. These core values inform all our endeavors as we pursue our vision of improving health through clinical excellence and compassion; every person, every time.

Philosophy of the group:

Guthrie President Joseph Scopelliti,a practicing Gastroenterologist at Guthrie, chose Guthrie for the collegiality, and because the environment of mutual respect and trust was so unique and attractive to him that he chose to stay. In the complex and chaotic business of healthcare, the real strength of a physician-led group practice model like Guthrie's is the ability to remove the complexity and minimize obstacles. This way, physicians and their support staff can provide the very best care for patients with the greatest degree of ease and efficiency
