MetroHealth to launch new surgical residency program this summer
METROHEALTH
MetroHealth will launch a new, fully accredited surgical residency program this summer in an effort to attract more top medical talent to Northeast Ohio by expanding surgery training opportunities, according to a news release.
MetroHealth has trained the surgical workforce for more than 60 years through partnerships. It is now accepting residents for its own program, which MetroHealth began designing last summer to replace a long-standing surgical residency partnership with University Hospitals that is coming to an end.
Built on the foundation of MetroHealth s Department of Surgery and the health system s affiliation with the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, the new program will enable MetroHealth to introduce resident physicians to the challenges and opportunities of practicing in an urban, mission-driven safety net public hospital setting, according to the release.

It would ve been nice if the integrative functional care team had assigned this patient a Pill Administrator so she had help in managing her zillion drugs and supplements. Or maybe they gave her a giant-size compartmentalized Pill Wheel so she knew what and when to take every day.
I have a hard time believing all of the added functional sludge they gave her helped her gastritis issues or contributed in any way to quality of life, much less her remission from cancer. At least they didn t prescribe twice daily coffee enemas like those poor patients with pancreatic cancer treated by Nicholas Gonzalez.

En español | Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that causes dramatic shifts in a person s mood, energy levels and behavior. People with the disorder experience profound emotional highs (known as mania or hypomania) and extreme lows (depression).
Formerly known as manic depression, bipolar disorder affects about 7.1 million adult Americans, or about 2.8 percent of the U.S. population age 18 and older, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.
People who have a parent or sibling with bipolar disorder have an increased chance of having the disorder themselves, but it can also emerge when there s no genetic link.
