American Medicine Today visited The McCormick Research Institute in St. Cloud, Florida.
The Institute is home to ‘Horses & Heroes,’ a program for veterans suffering from PTSD and ‘Heavenly Hooves,’ another program serving special needs individuals. During the segment, we speak to Dr. Manette Monroe, Professor of Pathology at the University of Central Florida and Director of Research at McCormick Institute, as well as Caity Wall, the ‘Horses & Heroes’ Program Manager. We also hear program success stories from Shemallian “Shemmy” Arrieta, a Second Class Master-At-Arms in the Navy, and a Corporal E4 in the Marine Corps and Francesca Langston, a Corporal in the Marine Corps.
