Greater Hickory Cooperative Christian Ministry (GHCCM) announced in March of 2020 that the Whole Life Center will be known as the Dr. John and Carol de Perczel Whole Life Center.
Dr. John de Perczel was an Orthopedic physician for 35 years in Hickory. Carol, his wife of 38 years, states “John was a long-time volunteer at GHCCM in the free and charitable medical clinic. As an Orthopedic surgeon, he was able to ease the pain of many people who otherwise might not have access to medical care. GHCCM held a warm place in his heart. I am thrilled for this opportunity to do something in his memory that was so special to him.”
