Opportunity for Support
Supporting the FutureDoctors from around the world choose to train at Cleveland Clinic. We must ensure that these physicians are empowered with the funding required to stay ahead of this rapidly advancing field. There is an opportunity to improve clinical care through strengthened educational initiatives.
Cleveland Clinic Florida’s three-year neurology residency program trains physicians within the full range of neurological disorders while providing them an opportunity to pursue clinical research.
Cleveland Clinic Florida is the only medical center in Palm Beach and Broward counties certified by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. Your support will help fortify our program, allowing us to continue attracting the brightest young physicians.
Together We Can Make A DifferenceFrom childhood epilepsy to dementia, neurological disorders affect people at all stages of life, and even affect entire families. There is a vast and growing need for new and improved treatment options.
Just consider: Stroke is a leading cause of serious, long-term disability; multiple sclerosis affects more than 2 million people worldwide, most in the prime of their lives. Every 70 seconds, someone in America develops Alzheimer’s disease; by mid-century, it will soar to every 33 seconds. In the United States alone, the combined cost of Parkinson’s disease is nearly $25 billion per year.
From childhood epilepsy to dementia, neurological disorders affect people at all stages of life, and entire families are affected.
To provide the very best care for patients afflicted by neurological disorders, it is essential to support advancements in neurological care and the training of neurology clinicians. We must invest today in educating physicians who will serve the patients of tomorrow.
