Journal Club: Department of Medicine, LGMC

Thank you for joining Journal Club, developed by the department of medicine at Lafayette General Medical Center.

The Journal Club was set up by the Department of Medicine as a means of sharing information among fellow physicians, nurses and providers whereby pertinent medical articles and journals are discussed. The purpose of The Journal Club is purely educational so that health care providers can stay up to date with current medical literature.
