ALL SET-UP FOR NEXT WEDNESDAY USMLE OPENING DAY

We are pleased to announce that NYPC/USMLE academy director Radames Rojas, M.D had just informed us that our academy new curriculum for the incoming semester will be ready by Sunday April 20,2008. By Monday April 21 at 4:00pm, we will have a meeting with NYPC chairman Walid Michelen, M.D at his Lincoln Hospital Office in order to make the final preparations for the incoming NYPC academy opening semester. There will be a brief and simple opening ceremony at Lincoln auditorium in which Chairman Michelen, Dr Castillo and Academy director will speak to the attendees regarding current and futures issues of the academy. This writer is to make an important announcement to our new and previous students. NYPC academy is the mean that will allow students enrollees to have a better chance to get accepted into residency training programs in the future, being that it is becoming harder and harder to enter into ACGME-accredited programs. This academy was an idea of Dr Castillo in 2003 but now belongs to Lincoln Hospital and to all of you students and academic staff: I hope that you will never allow this wonderful enterprise to go down and to be put out of business. Finally, do not forget inauguration date: WEDNESDAY APRIL 23, 2008 AT LINCOLN HOSPITAL AUDITORIUM ( FIRST FLOOR) AT MORRIS AVE AND 149TH ST, BRONX, NY
