"I will not be ashamed to say "I know not," nor will
I fail to call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed
for a patient's recovery."*
This passage is an excerpt from the Modern Hippocratic Oath, re-written
by Dr. Louis Lasagna in 1964. It serves as a reminder that the medical
community is one, each relying on the other for information, education
and support. To that end, we are proud to present Health Forum,
a show by doctors for doctors.
The concept behind Health Forum is to focus on issues facing the
medical community, today:
Malpractice Insurance and Medical Liability Reform - Learn what
groups like the AMA are doing to address this issue.
Medical and Surgical Procedures - Discover the latest advances in
pacemaker design and transplant procedures, as well as the newest
advances in preventive medicine.
Pharmaceutical Products - Health Forum will feature up-to-date developments
in biotechnology, new treatments for AIDS, cancer, heart disease,
stroke, and infectious diseases. We'll also look at what is being
done to address the threat of bioterrorism.
·Research and Technology - Find out the latest news in the
exciting field of pathology. Learn how organizations like the ASCP
are coping with the current nursing and laboratory professional
shortage.
These are just a few of the many topics that will be addressed.
Featured guests, composed of experts at the top of their field,
will present the issues in a clear, concise manner.
Health Forum is designed to inform and educate the medical community
in all facets - from nursing to pediatrics, oncology, pharmacology,
and other specialties.
