Dear Students,
Welcome back and happy New Year!
Spring semester brings with it a fresh start and new opportunities to deepen your understanding of medicine. Whether you are prepping for Boards, engaging in clinical experiences, or supporting medical research, each moment is a chance to expand your knowledge and skills.
The Heritage College has many exciting plans in store for the new semester. We are preparing for the groundbreaking of the Heritage Translational Research Center and working to expand support for local communities through the addition of a new mini-mobile unit. We will be hosting several prolific speakers, including our 2024 Commencement Speaker Andrew Yuan, D.O. , and Amy Acton, M.D., who served as director of the Ohio Department of Health during the critical early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Most notably, we will celebrate the achievements of our Class of 2024 and welcome these outstanding scholars into the osteopathic medical profession during the Heritage College’s 45th Commencement ceremony on May 11.
There will inevitably be challenges in this next chapter of your med ed journey. Rest assured that as part of the Heritage College community, you are surrounded by some of the most caring and passionate professionals in the industry. We are here to support you every step of the way.
I wish you a productive start to the new semester and look forward to all that we will accomplish together in 2024! Stay warm out there!
Sincerely,
Ken Johnson, D.O.
