University prepares for its first class of medical students

Mon, 23 Jun 2014Ron Brown :: Liberty University News Service

When the doors officially open for the inaugural Class of 2018,
founding dean of Liberty University College of Osteopathic Medicine (LUCOM), Dr. Ronnie Martin,
wants everyone to embrace a two-word concept:
Patients First. Martin is convinced that’s what Jesus would do.

“That’s the reason He is called the Great Physician instead of the great doctor. Jesus cared about the whole person,” said Dr. Martin.

Dr. Martin, along with his faculty, aims to train students for lives of faith, respect, success, and service to others. He said, “Our students will be guided and influenced by the principles of the Christian worldview to become greater servants of their patients and society.”
