Our History

After completing a surgical residency at Mayo Clinic, Dr. Donald Guthrie came to Sayre, Pa., and founded the Guthrie Medical Group in 1910. Within a year, he expanded services at Robert Packer Hospital as he recruited physician specialists to join Guthrie, an integrated model he learned at Mayo.

Since then, The Guthrie Clinic has evolved and grown to six hospital campuses and nearly 50 clinic locations. Learn more about our history here.
