051103 - Special Conference

This is a copy of an email sent to me by the Dean of FSU's medical school on November 3, 2005, to which I responded extensively on November 7, 2005 (see next posting). - VL

Dear Mr. Lewis,

Your request for a special conference at FSU College of Medicine has been forwarded to me by our President. The topic you are concerned with is not one the College of Medicine would chose if it had the resources to hold a nation-wide event to discuss a medical subject. This is a patient care/ health services issue that should be pursued with the medical community and provider groups that recommend and provide this medical service. The Centers for Disease Control would be an appropriate agency to validate your claims and influence the delivery or withholding of such services.

Sincerely,

J. Ocie Harris, M.D.
Dean, College of Medicine
Florida State University
Tallahassee, FL 32306-4300
