DR. SCHURY RECOGNIZED BY MICHIGAN OSTEOPATHIC ASSOCIATION FOR 30 YEARS OF SERVICE AS DELEGATE

Dearborn, Michigan— On May 14, 2008, Arno Schury, D.O., of Frankenmuth, was recognized by the Michigan Osteopathic Association (MOA) at its House of Delegates meeting for 30 years of service as a delegate. The House of Delegates meeting was held in conjunction with the MOA’s 109th Annual Postgraduate Convention and Scientific Seminar at the Hyatt Regency in Dearborn, Michigan.

The duties of an MOA delegate include attending the annual House of Delegates meeting and acting as a liaison between regional osteopathic physicians and the state association to provide input on the development and implementation of MOA policies, recommendations for policy to be forwarded to the national association (the American Osteopathic Association) and to guide the association’s efforts on its legislative agenda.

“Thirty years of serving as a delegate to the Michigan Osteopathic Association has not been a duty but a privilege. It has been terrific to see the change in medicine over these 30 years and to know that our organization has helped change it for better treatment of the patient,” said Dr. Schury.

The Michigan Osteopathic Association represents more than 7,000 osteopathic physicians and students and promotes osteopathic medicine in Michigan by shaping the health care delivery system to better serve the community.
