Thank you for your email and efforts. I am an NFP only Gyn and teach an NFP course every year at PCOM to the second year students as part of their Gyn curricula.

I am also Regional Director for the Catholic Medical Assn and we are having our midyear meeting next week in Chicago. Since Washington DC is in my Region I would like to report great news like this to the Board. Please send me any further info you may have. I would appreciate and thanks for your ministry and God bless

My name is Marguerite Duane and I am a Family Physician in practice in Washington, DC. Primarily I serve as the medical director of the Spanish Catholic Center. I also maintain a volunteer faculty appointment at town University, where I recently completed teaching a course to first year medical students about the different methods of fertility awareness.

I have a strong interest in educating health care professionals, residents and students about the basic principles of NFP and the supporting science behind their medical applications. In that regard, I am working with others to develop a collaborative project within the Family Medicine Education Consortium to promote the teaching of fertility awareness based methods.

Finally, I learned about this group, when a fellow member requested I share the syllabus from my course with others. I am happy to do so, but the group guidelines state that attachments should not be sent. Therefore, I will send the course description and schedule in a separate e-mail. If you would like more details, please let me know.

Marguerite, Welcome to the NFP discussion group. I am a pediatrician and Billings Ovulation Method instructor/user in Mississippi. I would very much be interested in seeing what is taught in your class. Whatever it is it is sure to be more than I was taught during medical school and i'm glad to see that a school like town - with less than a stellar reputation for orthodox Catholic teaching - is requiring such a course for its students. I look forward to your contributions to this group.

Thank you Dr. Duane for your work. It does not say your course is required for medical students. Is it?

In 20004 I was invited to the Philippines to give talks on Natural Family Planning at 5 major medical schools in Manila. On this trip I met the future Mrs. Dr. Baggot, who was at that time Dr. Rocel Medina, an OB resident at Philippine General Hospital (PGH).

During this trip I gave four talks at UST-the University of Santo Tomas. At UST all medical students are required to learn and teach Natural Family Planning to patient families. It is unfortunate that they teach rhythmn. But since they require all students to learn and teach NFP, I think that this qualifies UST as the most Catholic medical school in the world.

Dear Colleagues,

Thank you for the warm welcome!

Bob, it has been awhile, but it is great to hear from you my friend.

Paddy and Mike, I appreciate the support and interest in the course and glad to know others are doing the same or interested in doing so.

The class at town was a small group elective for first year medical students. There are about 200 students in the medical class and they had almost 25 small group courses to choose from. I had 9 students assigned to my class and all of them had ranked it as their first choice. There were actually more students that ranked my class as their first choice, but not all were assigned to it. It was encouraging to see there was good interest among the students.

Since the course went so well and I hope to encourage others to do something similar at their institutions, I plan to do a poster presentation about the course at the Family Medicine Education Consortium Northeast Region meeting. The meeting will be held in Hershey, PA at the end of October. I am also excited that 4 of the students who took the class will be presenting with me. If you will be at this meeting, please be sure to stop by and show your support.

Finally, it seems there is a way to post documents on the group page, so I will add the full syllabus with the lecture objectives and readings to that site.

Sincerely,

Marguerite
