Happy Black History Month! All month long, we’ll be celebrating by sharing weekly facts that honor the pioneers who shaped our history and our healthcare future. Our first spotlight goes to Dr. Cornelius McKane and Dr. Alice Woodby McKane, two groundbreaking physicians who reshaped healthcare and education for Black communities. Dr. Cornelius McKane and his wife, Dr. Alice Woodby McKane, Georgia’s first Black female physician became influential medical pioneers after arriving in Savannah in 1892. Together, they founded the McKane Training School for Nurses in 1893, one of the first nursing schools for African Americans in the South and later opened McKane Hospital for Women and Children to expand care for Black families. Dr. Alice also served as a U.S. medical examiner in Liberia before returning to Savannah to continue her groundbreaking work.
