Cape Regional’s Pre-Med at the Shore Program Graduates 12

COURT HOUSE — The 2013 Pre-Med at the Shore Program at Cape Regional Medical Center commenced on July 8 and concluded on July 26. This year’s 12 students represented Stockton College, Elizabethtown College, Kutztown University, Penn State, Princeton University, University of the Sciences, Loyola-Maryland, College of William and Mary and Lehigh University.
The program is intended to provide educational and motivating observational opportunities in many areas throughout the Medical Center as well as at Hope Cancer Center, Rainbow Pediatrics and in the Cape Regional Physicians Associates Surgical office of Dr. Jeffrey Tenner and Dr. Donald Tomasello. A Lunch ‘n Learn was held during the program’s duration and afforded an open forum for the students to address questions regarding medical school and medical specialties being considered. A roundtable session, at the program’s conclusion, was attended by Administration, Drs. Tenner and Tomasello and the participating students, serving as an avenue for the students to share their feedback regarding the program and any impact it offered as they consider a specific field of study or medical specialty.
Word of this well-respected program traditionally peaks the interest of colleges and universities throughout the United States – the 2014 roster of interested students has already reached maximum capacity!
“It is our privilege to provide this extraordinary program to tomorrow’s prospective healthcare professionals”, stated Julie Paolella, Director of Volunteer Services.
