Dr. J. James Rohack, UTMB graduate and incoming president of the American Medical Association, makes several mentions about his experiences at UTMB. "I also had the opportunity as an intern to start a continuity clinic, something new at the time. It was a way you could start seeing patients in your first year and then follow them over time. So I actually had patients that I had cared for six years. So it gave me the important lesson that, if the education system teaches about the body parts and not the whole person, then patients get frustrated because they are not sure who their physician is."
