Upcoming Events
​​​
​​​
At our 2nd annual Festivus for the Rest of Us,
we will be joined by Andrew Gillihan of Silverton's Alinea Performance and Drs. Patrick Barr and Rupal Oza from MedOne Healthcare Partners.
We will air our grievances about one aspect of healthcare that is ripe for change -- the Electronic Medical Record.
Festivus is sponsored by MedOne Healthcare Partners, the largest hospital medicine practice in central Ohio. They have recently brought their acute hospital medicine programs, post-acute care, and other physician-led services to Cincinnati!
The event location and libations are generously provided by Creatives On Call but
please bring a non-perishable food donation for a local food pantry.
