Thomas M. Nevola, MD
Tom Nevola was a senior resident
at the Maine-Dartmouth Family Practice Residency when he was killed in
an automobile accident in March, 1986. Tom believed strongly that understanding
and nurturing the spiritual dimension of patients' lives is an essential
part of the healing process. With the support of contributions from a
large number of colleagues, patients, friends and family, the
Tom Nevola Memorial Fund creates an ongoing living monument
to these efforts and to Tom. The Nevola Symposium is an annual program
of continuing education and interdisciplinary dialogue which is intended
to integrate medical and spiritual perspectives and resources
in health, healing and wellness.
