Ohio University’s Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine at Cleveland Clinic’s South Pointe Hospital is a joint venture between the university and the hospital, featuring an integrated campus for the study of osteopathic medicine.
The partnership’s primary focus is to address the pressing need for more primary care physicians in Northeast Ohio and the rest of the country. Experts predict a national shortage of more than 45,000 primary care physicians within the next decade. This collaboration was designed to increase access to care, stimulate medical innovation and address the need for more affordable, community-based healthcare. The inaugural class began classes in July 2015 and Cleveland Clinic works closely with the college to ensure clinical training slots are available to interested students.
