Danita Peoples, M.D. '82, Res. '86, wrote the article "What is alopecia? It's no laughing matter for millions of Black American women" that was featured in The Conversation. Read more.
James Regan, M.D. - Private practice in Denver, Internal Medicine. Clinical faculty at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Three children, one in doctoral program, education (CU); one in IT business (CU Denver) and one music/business (CU Denver, graduate). Married 27 years to Nita, who I met at a college reunion in 1983. Wayne did a great job of exposing us to that element which, I feel, is most critical to a medical education; patients. Many patients and many different venues from Harper/Grace to Sinai, to Beaumont, etc. I think from time to time of the dog anatomy lab... I think Peta would go nuts! I remember late night trips to Lafayette Coney Island to get some dogs to take back the the ED staff. Mostly I remember my classmates; wonderfully devoted, responsible, empathetic, and kind hearted. Wayne State will forever fill a bright spot in my soul.
