Overview

The Ultimate Gift

In depth study of the human body is a very important part of medical education that is possible because conscientious people donate their bodies for medical education. Countless individuals enjoy fullness of health in part through their well educated physicians. These physicians are always mindful of the gift of the human body and acknowledge their indebtedness to their anonymous donors.

Respect for the Remains

The donor's survivors may derive comfort in the knowledge that all people involved in medical education hold the life process in reverence and respect the remains in our care and protection at all times. We responsibly carry out the final wishes of the donor and of the family.
