SUMMER 2004

HIGHTLIGHT:
Dr. William Seavey, MD
Director of Clinical Trials

Dr. Seavey has been with the CTR since June, 2002. He is responsible for the patient’s physical and neurological exam. As the physician he will also talk with the caregiver about the patient’s history and problems not detectable in the exam room. ADC doctors’, including Dr. Seavey, do not take the place of a patient’s personal physician. Patients’ continue to see their personal physicians for prescriptions and basic health care.


In his spare time Dr. Seavey enjoys biking and hiking, travel, Jazz and Latin music. He enjoys volunteering at local student run health clinics, ClinicaTepati and the Shifa Clinic, and belongs to Physicians for Social Responsibility. He has participated in research aimed at establishing risk factors for the development of arthritis, evaluating methods to increase exercise in the elderly, and at our center is involved in studies of cognitive function in Latinos.


“I enjoy helping people and their families optimize their health and participation in life both through my direct interactions with them and by contributing to the research going on here at the center. I feel lucky to be a part of the Center’s truly caring staff.”
