Body of knowledge
After learning about NPR's coverage
of the Dartmouth Medical
School memorial service for the
cadavers that students use in
their anatomy studies [see the
Summer 2005 issue of Dartmouth
Medicine], I wanted to
find out how I could arrange to
donate my body. Thank you.

Observation post
Thank you for featuring me in
the "Clinical Observation" section
of Dartmouth Medicine's
Winter issue. Numerous people
have come up to me and mentioned
seeing it, both in and out
of the Medical Center. It has
been a great ice-breaker, and I
have had fun conversations with
lots of people with whom, previously,
I might have just passed
the time of day.

Supportive role
Please add me to your rolls to receive
Dartmouth Medicine.
My son is a first-year student at
DMS, and I greatly enjoyed being
a "second reader" of the
copies of the magazine that he
received during his visits to the
School. Your perspectives and
approach to health-related issues
are highly informative and exceptional
in their scope, variety,
and writing quality. As I strive to
play a supportive role during the
course of my son's medical education,
Dartmouth Medicine
will be a helpful tool for my own
learning and understanding.
Thank you for the chance to receive an excellent publication.

Personal insight
I am writing to request a subscription
to Dartmouth Medicine.
I am an L.P.N. and currently
work at Bellows Falls Pediatrics.
The doctor I work with
receives your magazine, and he
always tells me I am welcome to
read his copy—if I can find it!
I am on the phone almost daily with the DHMC Physician Connection Line, and I go to many DHMC nursing conferences. I enjoy the magazine, as it puts so much of what I do at DHMC on a personal level,
so I would appreciate being sure I can read every issue.
By the way, I believe Mary Hitchcock, after whom your hospital was named, was born in Drewsville, where I live.

Mary Hitchcock was indeed born in Drewsville, in 1834.
Informative source
I'd like to be added to your list of
subscribers. I have been reading
the magazine for several years,
obtaining a copy whenever I'm
at DHMC. I find it extremely informative
and want to be sure I
receive/read every issue.

Class action
I was recently admitted to the
DMS class that will start in the
fall of 2006. While I was in Hanover for my
interviews, I was given a copy of Dartmouth
Medicine and I loved it.
I wonder—am I eligible to receive a subcription at my home here in Arizona? If so, I would love to get on your mailing list. Many thanks!

Article aficionado
I am the father of a premed student at Colgate
and also make quarterly visits to my neurologist,
Dr. Thomas Ward, at DHMC,
where I have often enjoyed the articles in
Dartmouth Medicine.
I notice that it's possible to be added to your mailing list. May I please subscribe?
