NEOMED is celebrating ‘GETTING TO YES!’ as it prepares to open its fourth college – the Bitonte College of Dentistry – and you’re invited to join the celebration!

Please join the Bitonte College of Dentistry as it celebrates our legislative supporters, State Sen. Vernon Sykes, State Sen. Jerry Cirino and State Rep. Gail Pavliga, who have helped it get closer to being able to meet Ohio’s most dire health care need.

The work of Sen. Sykes, Sen. Cirino and Rep. Pavliga has been absolutely paramount in NEOMED’s efforts to establish the Bitonte College of Dentistry, which will educate and train the dentists who will be serving our communities in the future,” said John T. Langell, M.D., Ph.D., M.P.H., M.B.A., president. “We look forward to showing our appreciation for their support, which will have a profoundly positive impact by addressing the need for more dentists as well as greater access to dental care.”

The GETTING TO YES event will be held at noon, Monday, Feb. 5, in the Jay A. Gershen Atrium on the NEOMED campus. Heavy hors d’oeuvres and cake will be served. To attend, RSVP to Perry Alexandrides at palexandrides@neomed.edu by Jan. 31.
