they share this accomplishment with their loved ones who sup-
ported and cheered them on to this day and asked them to be
good doctors.

“Unlike many ceremonial walks, this one changes who you
are. When you exit stage right, you are a doctor.”

“Be a good doctor...to be a good doctor is different than being
a skilled doctor. Hopefully, you will be both, but good is more
important. The things that make you good are the intangibles
- good doctors make eye contact, good doctors are active lis-
teners, good doctors truly empathize...good doctors genuinely
love their patients. Love your patients with abandon.”

Dr. Brian Kessler, dean of the school of osteopathic medicine,
closed the ceremony with words of advice and led the gradu-
ates in taking the Osteopathic Oath.

“You are now given the responsibility to change the world, al-
ways remain honest, and work with others to move medicine
forward in a positive light....Learn and improve each day, and
rest and refresh each day as well. I wish everyone good luck
and Godspeed as you step into your next great adventure.”
