Our Extern Progratn at Brecksville Veterans Hospital

DR. ARTHUR QUADE Brecksville Veterans Administration Hos-
pital, founded in 1961, is one of one hundred
and sixty-eight medical centers funded by the
Federal Government solely for the medical,
surgical and psychiatric care of men and women
who have served in the Armed Forces.

This hospital, located twenty miles from
Cleveland, has a patient population of one
thousand beds plus a large out-patient depart-
ment. Primarily devoted to psychiatric patients,
Brecksville V.A. Hospital is modern, well-equip-
ped and well-staffed.

The Podiatry Department, responsible for.
the pedal health of all patients, employs a broad
range of podiatric therapeutics including peri-
odic ward rounds.

The Podiatry Clinic is open five days a week.
The Interns from the Cleveland Foot Clinic
participate in all foot surgery, orthopedic and
general surgery at the hospital. They also ob-
serve in the various medical clinics including ,
Dermatology, Neurology, Surgery and Or-
thopedics.

The Extern program,started in September
1965, is devoted to senior students who visit
the hospital twice a week. They participate in
the ward rounds, screening patients for the vari-
ous clinics; observe in Orthopedic Surgery and
Clinic, as well as treat patients in the Podiatry
Department.

Our Extern Program at University Hospitals

DR. HOWARDS. MITCHELL The University Hospital complex is a broad-
based teaching institute affiliated with the Case-
Western Reserve University Schools of Medi-
cine, Dentistry, and Nursing. As such it pro-
vides a wide range of diversified services to both
private and welfare patients.

Among these services available is that of a
Podiatrist. Since the inception of the program
in 1961, these services both in the hospitals and
in the clinics, have been under the jurisdiction
of the Department of Orthopedic Surgery

The Extern program, which began in 1962,
is conducted by Dr. Howard S. Mitchell in the
Diabetic Clinic at Lakeside Hospital. This pro-
gram is designed to give the seniors of the Ohio
College of Podiatry a more complete under-
standing of outpatient care in a hospital clinic
situation, hospital procedures, charting, inter-
departmental referral systems, and, most im-
portantly, clinical experience in the handling of
the diabetic patient.

This experience enables the student to gain
greater insight into the role of the Podiatrist in
rendering a preventive service to the diabetic
patient. Especially in the sense that it aids in
the lowering of the incidence of necessity for
amputation.

President CLASS OF 1969
WAYNE WOLF
Fortunately, as a member of the Junior Class, one can
look both at past and present. One can extend his hind-
sight in order that he may evaluate what he has undergone.
Indeed, one has seen many changes at the College smce
our admission in September 1965.

Perhaps, saying that podiatric medicine and the Ohio
College have changed and are still changing is trite by now.
However, the metamorphosis which podiatry has undergone
not only stimulates the student but the practitioner as well.

The new College Family is a genuinely concerned, well
educated staff, faculty and student body. Educational ex-
periences are no longer strictly mechanical techniques.
These experiences are those of a liberal education. It is
a liberal education when students are to think for them-
selves. Rational thinking on the part of the students re-
places rote techniques of the past.

Therefore, we are no longer Doctors of a Chiropodical
Technology. We are Doctors of Podiatric Medicine.

As President of the Class of 1969, may I hope that all
the goals and hopes of life be given to our colleagues and the
profession.

President CLASS OF 1970
LOUIS L. ENDRESS
Throughout this, our second year of formal education
in Podiatry, we of the sophomore class have become increas-
ingly aware of the broad scope of our profession and its many
rapidly changing facets. Our new awareness has come at a
tremendously dynamic period for podiatry. It has given
added enthusiasm and professional pride to every student.

As we prepare to enter the clinic, the men of the sopho-
more class also feel some apprehension associated with their
enthusiasm. Although our apprehension is the result of the
transition from classroom to the clinic and treating patients
for the first time, our enthusiasm is unaffected and our
ultimate goal of becoming progressive, well-qualified doc-
tors of podiatry will be attained. We look forward to the
satisfaction and fulfillment of our clinical experiences and
our future practices. We all envision a very bright and
promising future for podiatry and hope to further its de-
velopment as it grows in stature among the health profes-
s10ns.

The example for us to follow has been set by the out-
standing members of the Class of 1968. To them we extend
our sincere congratulations and best wishes for continued

President CLASS OF 1971
ROBERT YAGOOBIAN
_ Taking this opportunity to reflect back upon the scholas-
tic year of 1967-68, I must conclude, and justifiably so, that
this was a year predominantly marked with changes in
academic policy. The beneficial alterations derived from
these changes have lent substance, in a positive direction,
towards the pinnacle of progressive academic education.

Progressive learning is a process which stems from deep
seeded postulates and concepts handed down by the faculty
and the general governing body. Of these concepts perhaps
the most meaningful and significant is that of innovation.
The most noteworthy of these innovations were that of the
general rearrangement of the basic science curricula, the
inclusion of new professors holding doctorate titles, and the
incorporation of modern methods of teaching, such as pro-
grammed learning and clinic orientation.

Transcending the mechanics of teaching, a well func-
tioning administration is an imperative mechanism for the
maintainance of progressive educational modes of learning.
Paradoxically, our administration derives its leadership
from both the old and the new. The embodiment of such is
personified in Dr. M. Pomerantz and Dr. A. C. Maier. It
is through the dedication and wisdom of Dr. Pomerantz
coupled with the youthful energetic foresight of Dr. Maier
that an academic atmosphere along with educational ad-
vances have prevailed at O.C.P. during the past academic
year.

I extend my congratulations to the "Doctors" of the
Class of '68. I wish them every success in their life's chosen
profession Podiatric Medicine. My classmates and I'. as
future podiatrists, are confident that these new pract10n-

ers will strive to both uphold and elevate the status of our
profession among the fields of the healing arts.
