PCSOM students and faculty participate in RAM Expedition

PIKEVILLE, Ky. – Pikeville College School Osteopathic Medicine (PCSOM) students, faculty and staff recently participated in Letcher County’s Remote Area Medical® (RAM) Expedition. The clinic provided free medical, dental and vision services to 600 patients in the community.

RAM is a non-profit relief corps dedicated to serving others by providing health care services and assistance to people in need in remote areas of the United States and the world.
PCSOM third-and fourth-year medical students worked along with nearly 400 other medical volunteers to provide cardiovascular, asthma, blood pressure and diabetes screenings. Student-doctors triaged patients waiting to receive dental services.

PCSOM students, faculty and staff also participated in the RAM Expedition held in Pike County this summer.
