SUMMARY:Multi-Modal Pain Management
DESCRIPTION:Click HERE to Access Teams Recording \nClick HERE to Access CME Evaluation \nMulti-Modal Pain Management \nPresented By: Drew Michael Donnell\, MD\nPain Medicine/ Anesthesiology\, Beacon Health System \n \nWhile taking part in biomedical engineering research during high school at the local university\, Drew M. Donnell\, MD\, initially elected to study business and sports administration. He then transitioned to studying applied mathematics in the context of health care. Ultimately\, he decided there wasn’t enough interpersonal contact with patients. “I did not choose medicine until I firsthand experienced transformations in quality of life from various high-intensity surgeries during graduate school\, prior to matriculating into medicine\,” he says. \nHe earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Movement Science at University of Michigan – Ann Arbor. This was followed by a Master of Science degree in Biostatistics from University of Pittsburgh. It was here that he also graduated from the university’s School of Medicine as an MD. He completed a General Surgery Internship and Anesthesiology Residency at Ohio State University\, and a Multidisciplinary Pain Fellowship at Northwestern University. \nDr. Donnell is the first medical doctor in his family\, although his mother is a clinical psychologist. He chose the field of anesthesiology because of its complexity and frequent utilization of advanced technology. “I’ve administered anesthesia for everything from liver transplants to simple ankle reductions\, but ultimately it all comes down to protecting the patient and their physiology.” \nIn addition\, he practices interventional pain management\, to improve the quality of life for individuals affected long term by serious discomfort. “Pain management is a natural extension of anesthesiology that offers more face time with patients and an array of rapidly evolving interventions\,” he says. \nDr. Donnell delivers care to help patients be more comfortable and he works to enable them to be able to do more of the activities that give their lives meaning. \nThrough the years his patients have taught him that complex problems often have simple solutions\, but the opposite also holds true\, he says. “Medicine is one of the toughest jobs around\, but is unmatched in its ability to affect others\,” he says.

SUMMARY:Benign Breast Disease
DESCRIPTION:Click HERE to Access Teams Link  \nBenign Breast Disease \nPresented By: Katherine Goze\, MD\nTrauma and Surgical Services\, Beacon Medical Group \nDr. Kate Goze decided on a career in medicine when she was 15 years old. Being exposed to her grandmother who loved being a nurse\, and spending time herself in the hospital for her own illness as a child confirmed this decision. “Not only was I raised knowing that nursing is a truly noble profession\,” Dr. Goze said\, “but the comfort I felt knowing that the doctors and nurses would take care of me was something I knew I had to share with others.” She began her career as a nurse in the Emergency Department at Memorial Hospital.\nDr. Goze enrolled at the Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis to transition from registered nurse to physician\, initially expecting to choose a path in Emergency Medicine. The more time she spent in the operating room\, however\, the more she realized surgery would be the perfect fit so she can care for patients throughout their journey.\n“I wanted to be able to see patients through their entire hospital experience and then back in the clinic after they recovered\,” Dr. Goze said. “This was the biggest thing that led me to a career in surgery. I fell in love with the operating room and the feeling of being able to ‚Äòfix’ a problem and see the result in a very rewarding way. I knew that there was no other job for me.”\nDr. Goze has returned to Beacon Health System because of its model for excellence and patient-centered care. “I hope my patients know that I truly care about their well being and their outcome. I treat each patient as if they are family; that way\, I am certain that they are always getting my best\,” she said. “And my nursing background gives me a unique perspective and a very compassionate approach to patient care.”
