HEALTH CARE’S FUTURE PROVIDERS The Aspiring DOctors Precollege Pipeline Program had a successful first year at the Heritage College, Cleveland, with 12 seniors from Warrensville Heights High School completing the program and receiving postsecondary education scholarships. The three- year program brings high school students from historically underrepresented backgrounds to campus for academic enrichment and hands-on learning activities to foster their interest in careers in science and health care fields. Over the past year, Aspiring DOctors has received funding from Ohio's Community Connectors Grant Program, St. Luke’s Foundation, the city of Warrensville Heights and the Cyrus Eaton Foundation. 9770 MILES TRAVELED BY OUR MOBILE CLINICS TO PROVIDE SERVICES CLASS OF 2017 RESIDENCY MATCHES PRIMARY CARE SPECIALTIES 54% SURGICAL SPECIALTIES 15% EMERGENCY MEDICINE 12% PSYCHIATRY 5% TRANSITIONAL YEAR 4% 2% TRADITIONAL ROTATING INTERNSHIP 2% PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION 2% ANESTHESIOLOGY OTHER 4% KAREN MONTGOMERY-REAGAN, D.O.
