Thomas Frist Jr.

Belmont University has named its new College of Medicine after HCA Healthcare co-founder Thomas Frist Jr.

The Thomas F. Frist, Jr. College of Medicine, the plans for which were announced last October, has yet to open to students. The medical program is being established in partnership with HCA’s local arm TriStar Health, which will provide residencies and clinical rotations for Belmont’s medical students.
