The LECOM Health investment into the transformation of the landscape of the Erie region reminds the entire populace that the most enduring traditions and purposeful missions are ever-ready to respond to the needs of the community through growth and renewal. LECOM Health has been a stalwart perpetuator of community betterment. Refurbishments and upgrades, new and expansive projects, and an unremitting view of the possible have persisted throughout the ensuing decades and they have given rise to a remarkably improved Erie and a broader and more effective healthcare reach.

Thanks to LECOM Health and to the full complement of its resources, the mission and purpose that it began decades ago - to constantly improve access to health services and to affect community betterment - places LECOM squarely in the forefront of pinnacle care and community development as it serves the Erie region economically as well as medically. LECOM Health stands triumphantly - welcoming the next undertaking with the vision and purpose that will leave the landscape of tomorrow even more promising than that of today. For three decades your journey has been our passion. Excellence in medical education and unyielding commitment to community have formed a legacy-making mission that has established LECOM as the largest medical school in the nation and is the only osteopathic academic health center.

Other things may change us, but LECOM starts and ends with family. We have adhered to the time-honored practice of treating our family like friends and our friends like family. Such is the case with our cherished alumni.

A haven in a struggling world, our alumni family strives together to achieve great and noble goals: to heal the sick, to cure disease, to strengthen the elderly and the infirm, to bring health and wellness to our communities and neighbors, both at home and abroad. Generations of family members have found an educational home at LECOM, and as our alumni, we are proud to count you among them.

As you make a difference in the betterment of your communities, do not forget that just as you are part of our story, your educational home is part of your story. We encourage you to hold fast to those ties that bind.
