These two women were patients of AOM. They are the reason Dr. Bruno was able to establish this scholarship foundation, and to date remain our two largest donors. They are a shining examples of what an individual can do to help support AOM scholars and practitioners. We hope more individuals and organizations will follow their lead, and help us continue with our mission.
