Welcome to the summertime issue of MED! In this issue, we are pleased to share with you our conversations with two top leaders at LifeScape about the organization's expansive new campus and the opportunities it will provide for area children. (Along with lots of great images!) Thanks to all the folks in the marketing department at LifeScape who helped to bring this one together.
Also in this issue, the experts at COPIC explain why shared decision-making is critical when prescribing a popular new weight loss drug. We have a bumper crop of recent News & Notes, plus we'll give you a glimpse into some of the news making headlines 'Beyond the Border' in MED's multi-state coverage area.
While many people in the region are enjoying vacations and lazy days by the pool this time of year, we know that the practice of medicine doesn't stop. From all of us at MED, thank you for all you do to support the health and wellbeing of your communities, in every season. (But we hope you get a vacation, too!)
