Dear Dr. Muruganathan,

Hello, I’m Dr. Darilyn Moyer, Executive Vice President and Chief Executive officer of ACP. As we are all faced with the continuing pandemic and its global effects, I thank you for your continued contributions to internal medicine and to the care of your patients. I’m fully aware of both the personal and professional impact of COVID-19 on each of you and on our health systems.
I would like to congratulate Dr. Muruganathan and his team of physicians from the many specialties represented, on the launch of your new weekly e-newsletter, MEDI BEATS. During these challenging times, it is critical that we have quality clinical resources to help us in our daily work. As a practicing internist myself, who still sees patients in Philadelphia, I look forward to reading and sharing this and I believe that your mission of providing physicians around the globe with concise, Practice Pearls, will serve as a benefit to the medical community.
Many thanks for leading by example and leading through change and for staying strong and focused on the greater good, during an unprecedented and prolonged global health care crisis. I.M. proud to be working with you and for you, and I am more encouraged than ever that, together, we can continue to achieve positive changes for our patients and demonstrate the vital role and unique value of internal medicine. Wishing you all continued good health and strength as we work together globally to get to the other side of this pandemic and heartfelt congratulations on your new publication!
