About William Lawrence Jr.:

Pediatrician William Lawrence Jr. was honored Aug. 22 with the 2009 Outstanding Service Award bestowed upon him by The North Carolina Pediatric Society at its 2009 annual meeting.

The society recognized him for outstanding service during his tenure at the N.C. Division of Medical Assistance from 2004-2008. During that time, Lawrence served in several roles including deputy director of clinical affairs, senior deputy director, and acting director of the division until late 2008. Wilson said that Medicaid is arguably one of state government's toughest job assignments. Lawrence received high marks from legislators, state officials and lobbyists during the 2008 session of the General Assembly for guiding the Medicaid program through the budget process.

Lawrence completed his undergraduate studies at UNC Chapel Hill and is a graduate of Wake Forest University's Bowman Gray School of Medicine. He completed his internship and pediatric residency at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. He has held faculty positions at several medical schools and worked at Aegis Medical Center in Winston-Salem.

Lawrence grew up in Durham where he attended Hillside High School and late graduated from the N.C. School of Science and Mathematics. He is the son of Dr. and Mrs. William and Queen Lawrence of Durham. His sister, Lori, is an assistant principal at Lexington (N.C.) High School.
