BALTIMORE: JOHNS HOPKINS PRESS. 1943. 2 rTEMPLE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE Table of Contents We, as members ot the class ot 2010, began medical school only a few short years ago. Some ol us knew exactly what kind of doctors we wanted to be; others were open to anything; still others were on the fence between two or three options. Wc are now at a time when we know which paths we will soon walk on. Some of us will be surgeons, some internists, some pediatricians, and so forth. As much as we may joke about the superiority of one field over another, it is impossible to forget the com-men thread that links us alls the desire to serve our patients by being the best doctors wc can possibly be. We each still possess that optimism and enjoy the thrill ot practicing good medicine. Despite our different personalities and goals, wc all are united in this aspect, and we each have been influenced by the great teachers we have encountered on the wards who remind us daily that medicine is more than just science. Over the years, one particular physician has continued to show dedication and passion not only to her profession, but also to the role of educator, a role which is intimately tied into that 4 jTTemple University School of mfdicine of the physician. Imagine a young undergraduate student who hates the morning and becomes queasy at the site of blood and patients in pain while volunteering in the ER and Labor floors of HUP; would you ever imagine such a student going on to become a trauma surgeon? Probably not, but this is Dr. Amy Goldberg, section chief of Trauma Critical Care and residency director for the General Surgery residency at Temple. Any student who has encountered Dr. Goldberg has immediately recognized her commitment to her patients, residents, students, and other medical staff at Temple. A Philadelphia native and avid Phillies fan for life, Dr. Goldberg grew up in Broomall with her parents, two sisters and brother. She is the only member of her family in the medical field. In addition to her love of baseball, Dr. Goldberg participated in sports such as basketball, field hockey and track. Her coaches, particularly her basketball coach, provided the initial encouragement that would carry her through her future endeavors while motivating her to serve as a coach in her own right for the residents and students she would train. Like all of us. Dr. Goldberg was fascinated by biology, science, and the miraculous nature of the human body. She knew she wanted to become a physician but pursued the study of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, considering herself a student of human nature.” She continued her education at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York, where Anatomy was her favorite course. Although she enjoyed her Internal Medicine clerkship much more than her Surgery clerkship as a medical student, anatomy was the clincher and the reason she chose surgery. T couldn't imagine other people with their hands in the liver and the spleen and everything else and not me; 1 would have felt cheated if I didn't get to work with the organs everyday too. It’s exciting to know that at any point you have the opportunity to operate in any part of the body.” Dr. Goldberg then returned to Philadelphia for her residency in General Surgery at none other than Temple. Afterwards, she completed a one-year fellowship in Traumatology and Critical Care at the University of Maryland - so much for feeling queasy around blood! Dr. Goldberg relates trauma surgery to being a member on a sports team: trauma surgery required quick thinking as well as the harmonious participation of all rhe team members. It is for this reason that she considers even us medical students as integral to rhe care of the patient. After completion of the fellowship, she was drawn back to Temple as an attending surgeon and has been here ever since, excelling in her field and motivating those around her to work towards their goals. Temple seems to have had a lasting impact on Dr. Goldberg. She smiles with pride when asked if she sees herself staying here for a long time, saying, “1 do, I really do.’ It is Temple's mission “This program has helped Dr. Goldberg deal with the difficulties of her work by helping these kids ‘have better lives when they leave here. ’ of service to the community, education of student and residents, and research that keeps Dr. Goldberg around. It’s the personality of the place. It's rhe people rhat define Temple. The reason why many people stay is because they too believe in the mission, in each other.” The community certainly is a major impetus for Dr. Goldberg’s work. Working in a hospital that encounters numerous traumas each day, especially among the youth of the surrounding community, it never becomes easier to watch patients who are severely injured, or worse yet to watch them die. Dr. Goldberg wanted to get to the root of the problem so that patients were not simply patched up and sent back out on the streets only to return again. She co-created the Cradle to Grave program with Scott Charles, the program’s outreach coordinator. This program involves middle and high-school aged children as well as those who have already been in trouble with 2010 SKULL T5 violence. The kids were brought to Temples trauma bay to learn about Lamont Adams, a 16-year-old who was shot 14 times over a $100 game of dice. The students were shown the heroic measures undertaken to save Lamont, who only lasted 15 minutes in the trauma bay before succumbing to his injuries. They were led through the morgue and shown the cold consequences of violence. This program has involved hundreds of children and adolescents, none of which have been trauma victims in Temples trauma bay. This program has helped Dr. Goldberg deal with the difficulties of her work by helping these kids have better lives when they leave here.” She certainly feels sadness at the end of a rough day, but doing what she can through service and education mixed with the healing nature of time arc what help her deal with the trials of trauma surgery. By helping to develop this program, Dr. Goldberg embodies the spirit of commitment to community that we all should strive for as physicians. So what docs a trauma surgeon do during her not-so-abun-dant free rime? Dr. Goldberg enjoys the arts and visiting the Philadelphia Art Museum. She notes the importance of balancing the structured aspects of medicine with the abstract aspects of art. She loves Impressionism, but not surprisingly, her favorite painting is Prometheus Bound by Rubens. If you have ever appreciated the theme of this painting, you can understand why Dr. “I think as a medical school, our students are really scrappy and have a whole lot of heart, and that's a description of me, too. That's a good thing. Goldberg makes sure to view it during each trip to the museum: Dr. Goldberg also bikes and, like many of our classmates, she has participated in several Broad Street Runs. She also enjoys the orchestra, attending lectures, and being in the know about politics. Of course, the Phillies remain dear to her and she is a season ticket holder. Although she still hates the morning. Dr. Goldberg has learned through long hours of training the importance of mental strength. The physical being is very strong and can tolerate a lot of hours of work, but really you have to be mentally strong. Your mind tells your body how tired you are. 1 came to appreciate that everybody, not just me, has a lot of inner strength. She continues to strive for excellence and attributes much of this commitment to all the nameless women during the 1960s and 1970s who entered the workforce, whether out of want or need. She sees their energy not only in herself, but also in us, the students of Temple Med. I think as a medical school, our students arc really scrappy and have a whole lor of heart, and that’s a description of me, too. That's a good thing. Scrappy means somebody that works hard and doesn’t give up, doesn’t take no, does what’s necessary, and it's because of their heart that allows them to do that, to do what’s right. Dr. Goldberg encourages us to ’really embrace the privilege of taking care of patients and understand that the relationship that you as a physician has with the patient can be very special. At rimes, medicine is much more an art than a science. Dr. Goldberg’s unending service to the students, residents and her patients is clear and will always be valued. We remember her just as she remembers us: Pretty scrappy with a lot of heart. By Varsha Somasckharan b'Ytemple University school of medicine IN APPRECIATION We celebrate Dr. Concetta HARAKAL'S 50 YEARS OF SERVICE AS AN EDUCATOR. SCIENTIST. AND FRIEND. She maintains that the quantity of her years at Temple pales in comparison to their quality: My first love is the student body and that is what has kept me here this long.” When she talks of Temple medical students, a sense of awe enters her tone as she recounts their brilliance in the face of such adversities as admissions, workload, and tuition. There was the student who studied medicine by day and drove a taxi by night to support his family. There were students who would stay in lab for up to eight hours after a full day of class because they were genuinely interested in the matcrial-and Dr. Harakal genuinely interested in teaching them. Then there are students in our class who were fortunate enough to interview with Dr. Harakal and receive the ultimate ofcmpathetic hugs. If there is one thing that makes Dr. Harakal such a remarkable individual it is that she genuinely cares for all of her students. Of course there is more than just one thing that makes her remarkable, but her concerted effort to understand and immerse herself in the plight of medical students is quite touching. She began teaching medical students by chance, she says. Temple medical students had tlA .1.1- .-. the hall t:«•: ft hci lab and her general curiosity presented her with an opportunity to teach. Inspired by their sin- i cere !• Dr. larakal took quite � k J a shine to them. She wanted to know more about them, what hardships they had to overcome, and how she could better help them: so, she joined the admissions committee. When her family emigrated from Italy to Philadelphia, they settled in a decidedly un-Italian neighborhood in order to better understand the new culture. Similarly, Dr. Harakal saw her position on the admissions committee as a way to understand medical students: I wanted to see exactly what they do - when they apply, what they do right when they were accepted, what they were after.” Helping with Dr. Harakal conducting an experiment in the late 1960 s. Con cxMa rJ {a rttkaX, rPfu 2). professor of pharmacology the difficulties that medical students faced, Dr. Harakal wanted to know: What's your trouble? Are we failing your What can I do to help you?” It is hard for me to believe that Dr. Harakal has ever failed to come through for anyone. It is also hard to accept that Dr. Harakal will leave Temple for retirement at the end of the year. For her, the decision was not an easy one and she does not in fact look forward to leaving what she loves and enjoys so much-teaching the TUSM student body. Nevertheless, she is optimistic about change and future endeavors of rc-Icarning Italian and reaching out to church parishioners without families by writing them letters. As her lovely smile has graced the pages of every yearbook since 1958, Dr. Harakal will surely be missed and never 2010 Skull T- HOODERS Graduation is a cultural tradition considered a rite of passage from one platform in a students life to another. It has its origins in antiquity where many tribes were found to be celebrating their passing from youth to adulthood through various customs and observances. Todays graduation ceremony is a manifestation of this ancient rite of passage in the modern context. An important part of the graduation ceremony is the giving of hoods. The origin of the hood lies with the Celts and the Druids (the Celtic priests). Among the Celts, only the Druids wore mantles which had hoods attached to them as a mark of their rank in the society. In the schools of the Middle Ages, the hoods were worn as a head-covering to resist the frigid temperatures. But gradually, it was integrated into the academic system with much symbolic significance. Now, wearing of hoods symbolizes a kind of authority, a high standing, or to identify a new graduates institution and the degree. 8T Temple University school of medicine ALISA PEET, M.D. Assistant Professor General Internal Medicine BENNETT LORJBER, M.D. Professor Infectious Diseases A hood is always black in color, but the edges and lining have individual significance. The hood is lined in silk with the official colors of the institution conferring the degree. The edging of the hood is velvet, with a particular color representative of the field of study to which the degree pertains. The official colors of Temple University are cherry and white while the velvet is dark green signifying medicine. A doctorate degree has a hood length of four feet. The tradition is that a candidate for a degree should not wear the hood of that degree until it is actually conferred. One of the great continuing traditions is the presence of hood-ers - individuals who symbolically bestow the medical degree upon each graduate. The senior class chose four individuals to assist with the placement of the hoods. These distinguished members of the faculty were selected not only for their superior quality of teaching, but for their passion, hard work, and dedication, the practice of medicine, and student education. Each hooder has committed themselves to challenging the minds of medical students and encouraging future doctors to maintain integrity to the profession. It was from these mentors that we were able to obtain the knowledge and learn the skills to become physicians - doctor, teacher, and friend. Dr. Lorber, surrounded by his students and his art.

From our first days of anatomy- for some of us the first time in scrubs- to our last day on rotations, we’ve made enormous strides in our medical careers. We've processed thousands of bits of information. We memorized biochemical pathways, only to forget them, only to relearn them again for USMLE Step 1. We've seen hundreds of patients and heard their stories. In addition to this, you read dozens of my emails (maybe hundreds), delivered food at Thanksgiving to people who could not afford it, ran health safety tables at Kenderton's health fair, and got engaged. Some of you even created future Temple medical students. It has been a privilege to go through all of this alongside you (well, not right alongside you). Temple has trained us well, and it is finally time to go out into the world and be the doctors we have always wanted to be. I would like to thank you once more for choosing me to lead and serve you as Class President for the past four years. I wish all of you the best of luck in residency and in your future careers.

M.D. Los Angeles, California B.A. Human Development University of California, San Diego Kelly's Story A storm had passed. It was early morn. Push they yelled— ughh —Kelly was born. Her hair was red with plenty of curl. The spoon test failed. Surprise—a girl! Kelly always needed a watchful eye. When unattended objects would fly. The coffee maker earned her hospital fame Thus her nickname Calamity Chain . It burnt her legs, arms and chest. The scars are evidence of her young quest. My favorite story is the 2 mile hike from Hell”. She turned the beauty of nature into a prison cell. She finally conquered the heat, switchbacks and puberty. To discover waterfalls, cool streams, and serenity. Kelly has enjoyed many challenges in school. In history, music, and sports she did rule. Soon her ambition took off on a new trail. Medicine became her Holy Grail! If anyone asked what her calling would be, She’d assure them it was pediatric oncology. Dreams lead to adventure and to new starts. Attending Temple was only a part. Its just the beginning of life’s ongoing tests, It’s time to move forward and figure out the rest. Mom’s advice: Always be curious, committed but fun. Save some time for yourself to play in the sun.

On people skills: Appreciation is a wonderful thing: it makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well. On saving the world: Every man is guilty of all the good he did not do. On thinking instead of doing: “Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it?

Biochemistry Duquesne University “The trouble with Med students is they are young, not young like spring time but young like a morning, full of possibility full of questions you have stopped asking. And sometimes they look at you with this admiration that seems misdirected. They arc lean, they haven't yet inhaled the stale donuts and coffee of the 3 a.m. ICU. They are still reverent about death and admire your irreverence. The trouble with Med students is they follow you around, they page you, they work to keep up with you, you work to stay ahead. The trouble is they stop you, they look in your eyes and they ask. The trouble with Med students is they touch you and make you feel something. And that is a bittersweet thing, for we haven’t time to feel, but to feel is such a sweet memory that it is in a way quite exhilarating and you find you have wasted time with it. Then at night when exhaustcd...you lie...you remember that feeling and wonder where it came from and if it will come again. And in the early morning madness of rounds you look, perhaps too expectantly, for that young face of morning. And you check yourself and sclf-admonish. But still you look for that face. And recall that strange look your own teachers used to give you, part awe, part irritation and you smile at the legacy. -Trouble. Beatriz M.

Goldberg, M.D., Department of Surgery Temple University Hospital 208Ttemple University School of medicine CHOOSING A SPECIALTY i I I ■Mill HI HlllllllB—iHf 1 Many medical students sweat and fret when it comes time to choose which residency is right lor them. They try imagining their future, asking their loved ones, and sometimes even try no guarantee questionnaires in a desperate attempt to pick the right field of medicine for their future career. 1 he problem is simply not knowing the essence of each specialty. As most medical students are familiar with coffee, a technique has been developed that compares the essence of each field of medicine with the everyday task of drinking a cup of coffee. Each student simply needs to find the cup of coffee that most appeals to him or her, and a specialty match is made! Control: A cup of coffee Dermatology: Look at the coffee, then go home. Emergency Medicine: Coffee to go Family Practice: Savor the coffee with your family and friends, then prescribe a Z-Pack. General Surgery: Drink the $ % !!(§ coffee NOW! Gynecology: Make the coffee uncomfortable by using a very cold spoon. Internal Medicine: R o tea, chocolate milk, Captain Morgan’s, juice, water, etc.... Obstetrics: Deliver the coffee. Opthalmology: Which coffee looks better: Coffee one or coffee two? Orthopedics: Take the coffee cup, smash it and stomp on it. Get a prosthetic coffee cup, toss it on the ground and consult medicine to clean up the mess. Pediatrics: You are too young for coffee. How- about some Kool-Aid? Psychiatry: Figure out which side of the house in the sky your patient is in then put some Zoloft in his coffee. Radiolog) : Liquid consistent with coffee but cannot rule out tea, chocolate milk, Captain Morgan’s... Urology: I would not drink that coffee if I were you...

Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, PA Innovations that are changing healthcare Henry Hood Center for Health Research Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Wilkes-Barre, PA Pioneering surgical advancements. Pursuing genetic research. Developing clinical procedures. Reaching new levels of clinical excellence. We're Geisinger Health System. An academic, physician-led, $1.9 billion not-for-profit health system serving nearly three million residents in 43 of Pennsylvania's 67 counties, driven by innovation. The integration of our two hospitals, more than 700-member physician group practice, system-wide research initiatives, 212,000-member health plan, progressive technology and extensive electronic health record system creates a collaborative environment where the best and the brightest work to develop programs that improve care and provide increased value. New clinical models for improving quality and reducing costs. Recently, we've attained a national prominence due to our transformation of the delivery of clinical care. ProvenCare is Geisinger's model for eliminating variation in patient care. Clinicians and physicians follow a standardized work flow derived from evidence-based best practices designed to remove unnecessary steps, distribute work to appropriately trained non-physician staff, use electronic health record tools and engage patients as part of the decision-making process. All with the goal of improving patient outcomes and reducing costs. The ProvenCare model is applied to acute episodic, perinatal and chronic care. The ProvenHealth Navigator is our version of the medical home. Patients identified as high-risk due to chronic conditions and co-morbidity are assigned a ProvenHealth Navigator, a nurse case manager available 24 7 who coordinates all care, answers questions, educates patients and integrates the healthcare team across the continuum of care. Research that opens the door to possibilities. At Geisinger. we're also in a unique position to study the role of genetic variation in health and disease because of our large and nontransitory population and our comprehensive integrated healthcare system supported by a fully implemented electronic health record system. Geisinger researchers study the impact of human genetic variation on individual differences in health and disease, such as predisposition to common diseases or response to specific drugs. We're building a repository of patient blood and tissue samples to help researchers discover genes that increase a person's risk of chronic disease and help physicians understand why individuals respond differently to the same treatment Our Biomarker Core takes advantage of Geisinger Medical Lab's infrastructure to test new biomarkers. Education programs that secure a legacy. At Geisinger, we're integrating education with health care delivery innovations and conintually identifying transformational opportunities. We understand the importance of integrating learners into clinical experiences and the value that simulations offer practice techniques - all leading to real-life clinical metrics and assessment. We are committed to using innovation to restructure roles and responsibilities and redesign the way we work so that care is of the highest quality and best value. It's part of our culture. It's our vision for the future that will continue to drive growth—and career potential—for everyone involved.
