Congratulations to the 228 new physicians who received their DO degrees today at our 40th Commencement ceremony -- our largest class ever! Approximately 47 percent of this year's class will pursue a primary care specialty, and 70 percent will remain in Ohio for their graduate medical education. We couldn't be more proud!

Our partnership with the Cleveland Clinic in the Heritage College, Cleveland, brings with it so many benefits for our medical students. One nice bonus is the appearance of Clinic CEO and President Tom Mihaljevic, M.D., as this year’s Commencement speaker for our graduating class of 2019. The graduation of our first-ever class from the Cleveland campus makes this year’s commencement a major milestone for both partners, and we’re thrilled to have a physician and leader of Dr. Mihaljevic’s stature to inspire our newest set of D.O.s.

In 2015, the Heritage College opened its Cleveland campus in affiliation with Cleveland Clinic, with the medical school housed on the campus of Cleveland Clinic South Pointe Hospital. This coming weekend our first graduates from the Heritage College, Cleveland, will receive their medical degrees during the 2019 Commencement. Yesterday, we gathered at the Great Lakes Science Center for the Cleveland Inaugural Class Celebration. Congratulations to our graduates, pioneers of the OU-HCOM family. #CareLeadsHere #OUHCOM #ClevelandClinic #OhioUniversity #MedSchool #Osteopathic (photographs by @facun and @tywwright)

“When I was working in community pharmacy, I had a patient come in to pick up their insulin. So they have a first-time fill for insulin in one hand, and a very large bag of chocolates in the other. And you know, there’s a little bit of discrepancy there. So I ask, ‘is this the first time you've had this medication?’ and the patient looks at me and you could just see the fear in their face of like, 'I have this brand new med, it’s an injection, I don't know exactly what it's for, and I know I have to work on my diet but there's so many unknowns.' It was right then that I realized, the medication isn't the answer. You’ve got to back it up. Medications—obviously—you need them. They play an indispensable role in health care, but, I saw myself wanting to start at square one with my patients. I am a pharmacist still, I love being a pharmacist. I'm so excited for the day when I can use all these skills to create the ultimate patient experience.” Brittany Snyder, OMS-I #HumansofOUHCOM #careleadshere#ouhcom #ohiouniversity #osteopathicmedicine #medstudent (photograph by @marlenasloss)
