MD Scope Classifieds fees waived for March and April
 
Please note: As one small acknowledgement of the financial pressures on physician practices during the COVID-19 pandemic, the AMA will be waiving the fees for member classified ads. This will apply to ads that have and/or will appear in the March and April issues of MD Scope. We anticipate that charges for ads will resume starting with the May 7 issue.

We recently profiled two AMA members in Alberta Doctors' Digest for our Shine A Light initiative:
A somewhat reluctant nominee for the AMA’s Shine A Light program, Dr. Francesco Mosaico’s main desire is that “the light be shone upon” the comprehensive health care provided by the entire staff of Boyle McCauley Health Centre to their valued patients, made up largely of marginalized populations.
A wearer of many lab coats, Dr. Remo Panaccione is a gastroenterologist at the Foothills Medical Centre; a Professor of Medicine at the University of Calgary; Director of the U of C’s Inflammatory Bowel Disease Clinic; Director of GI Research; and Director of Admissions, Cumming School of Medicine.
