Dec. 30, 2004 \| The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) in the College of Medicine remembered the past and looked to the future as members celebrated its 20^th anniversary on Dec. 10 in Trapnall Hall. PM&R is the medical specialty that focuses on restoring or maximizing function to all body systems. Physiatrists diagnose and treat conditions associated with pain, numbness, weakness and disability. Most patients of the PM&R Department have acute and chronic pain and musculoskeletal problems like back and neck pain, tendonitis, pinched nerves and fibromyalgia. Physiatrists also treat people who have experienced catastrophic events resulting in paraplegia, quadriplegia, or traumatic brain injury and individuals who have had strokes, orthopaedic injuries or neurologic disorders such as multiple sclerosis, polio or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease). PM&R grew out of efforts to care for disabled World War II veterans, and was recognized as a specialty in 1947. The number of physiatrists nationally has grown from a little more than 2,500 in 1986 to more than 8,000. UAMS’ PM&R program was formed as a division in the College of Medicine in September 1984 and gained department status in 1991. The department has a strong presence at the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System, Arkansas Children’s Hospital, Baptist Health Rehabilitation Institute and Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock. The PM&R Residency program was organized and received provisional approval by the American Board of PM&R in August 1986. To date, 57 residents have completed the residency program. During the celebration, UAMS Chancellor I. Dodd Wilson, M.D., honored Dr. F. Patrick Maloney, the department’s first chair, who served UAMS from 1984 to 1997. Also honored for their leadership in the development of the department were: Harry Ward, M.D., chancellor emeritus, who served as UAMS chancellor from 1979 to 2000 Thomas Bruce, M.D., professor of medicine and dean emeritus, professor of health policy and management for the UAMS College of Public Health and associate dean of the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service Eugene J. Towbin, M.D., Ph.D., a national leader in geriatric medicine, former chief of staff of the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System (CAVHS), and professor emeritus in the UAMS College of Medicine.

Dec. 30, 2004 \| The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) in the College of Medicine remembered the past and looked to the future as members celebrated its 20^th anniversary on Dec. 10 in Trapnall Hall. PM&R is the medical specialty that focuses on restoring or maximizing function to all body systems. Physiatrists diagnose and treat conditions associated with pain, numbness, weakness and disability. Most patients of the PM&R Department have acute and chronic pain and musculoskeletal problems like back and neck pain, tendonitis, pinched nerves and fibromyalgia. Physiatrists also treat people who have experienced catastrophic events resulting in paraplegia, quadriplegia, or traumatic brain injury and individuals who have had strokes, orthopaedic injuries or neurologic disorders such as multiple sclerosis, polio or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease). PM&R grew out of efforts to care for disabled World War II veterans, and was recognized as a specialty in 1947. The number of physiatrists nationally has grown from a little more than 2,500 in 1986 to more than 8,000. UAMS’ PM&R program was formed as a division in the College of Medicine in September 1984 and gained department status in 1991. The department has a strong presence at the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System, Arkansas Children’s Hospital, Baptist Health Rehabilitation Institute and Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock. The PM&R Residency program was organized and received provisional approval by the American Board of PM&R in August 1986. To date, 57 residents have completed the residency program. During the celebration, UAMS Chancellor I. Dodd Wilson, M.D., honored Dr. F. Patrick Maloney, the department’s first chair, who served UAMS from 1984 to 1997. Also honored for their leadership in the development of the department were: Harry Ward, M.D., chancellor emeritus, who served as UAMS chancellor from 1979 to 2000 Thomas Bruce, M.D., professor of medicine and dean emeritus, professor of health policy and management for the UAMS College of Public Health and associate dean of the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service Eugene J. Towbin, M.D., Ph.D., a national leader in geriatric medicine, former chief of staff of the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System (CAVHS), and professor emeritus in the UAMS College of Medicine. Two faculty members who joined the department the first year were recognized at the ceremony: Shirley McCluer, M.D., who became the first residency program director and Ludwik J. Kozlowski, M.D., a former clinical associate professor.
