Rehab Reimagined
Participating in the rehabilitation of children with autism and cerebral palsy has enriched my medical school experience with unique and clinically relevant experiences.
Through the practice of Hippotherapy, children with functional or cognitive difficulties are able to engage in therapy in a more personal manner, allowing them to connect to the activities in a way unlike any other form of rehabilitation.
By volunteering in Hippotherapy over the summer and during my second year of medical school, I was able to assist in many different activities and be exposed to the inner workings of this unique form of occupational therapy.

The 2026 HOSA (Health Occupation Students of America) Conference was recently held in Harrisburg. More than 2,000 students attended, and at least 500 learned about LECOM’s Early Acceptance Program. Many students also stopped by to try soap carving and test their manual dexterity. They were often surprised by how well they did! Future dentists in the making!

First-year student Eve Giancarlo adds, "Everyone is different in how they learn, whether it's through videos, reading, or Anki, but LECOM at Elmira offers an incredible number of resources."

Whether it's professors creating their own practice questions or review sessions, or second-year mentors offering their top tips for success, no student is ever alone in the learning process.

I have been a boxer and MMA fighter for as long as I can remember. As a LECOM at Elmira student, when I was offered the chance to provide ringside medical care at the Gladius MMA fights, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. It was extremely gratifying to combine both of my passions for fighting and sports medicine.
Assessing broken noses, concussions, and lacerations all felt strangely nostalgic because I remember having those same assessments performed on me. This experience supercharged my desire to pursue sports medicine, and I am eternally grateful to Dr. Lambroussis, Dr. Gulati, and Dr. Mallouk for giving me this opportunity.

LECOM's School of Podiatric Medicine welcomed reps from Hoka to the Erie campus for a fantastic presentation on shoe gear technology and finding the right footwear. On your feet all day? Got patients who are? Or maybe you'll have patients recovering from an injury or dealing with other issues. After a panel discussion with LECOM experts, students hit up the Hoka rack and went for a run!
A huge thank you to Hoka's Toby Rollinson and Cameron O'Connell for sharing their expertise!

Congratulations to LECOM’s Dr. Anupam Bishayee on his appointment to the National Academy of Osteopathic Medical Educators (NAOME) as one of two Fellows in the Teaching and Evaluation category.

His appointment will allow him to help shape the future of osteopathic medical education.

NAOME is a service-focused academy, and Fellows play a critical role.

Dr. Bishayee’s work embodies the spirit of osteopathic medical education – holistic, integrative, and student-centered – and it is this alignment of character and practice that will make him an exceptional Fellow.

Spotlight on LECOM at Elmira student Emanuelle Andrianopoulos, as she matched into Family Medicine at Central Maine Medicine - congratulations!

Emanuelle always wanted to be a doctor in a smaller town, which is why she ranked Central Maine Medicine high on her list. From children to grandparents, Emmanuelle will have the opportunity to care for patients across an entire lifespan. This type of continuity of care creates long-term doctor-patient relationships focusing on whole-person care.

For Isabelle Genereux, OMS1, her decision to choose LECOM at Elmira was based on the genuine interest faculty members have in their students' unique passions and interests.

Isabelle was also inspired by the kind second-year students she met during her On-Campus Day, who shared honest and positive insights about life at LECOM in Elmira.
