 Clinical Research enables doctors and researchers to find new and better ways to understand, detect, control and treat illness. These research studies are a critical step in the process of developing safe, new prescription drugs. While most studies investigate drugs not yet approved to be given as a prescription, others further evaluate already approved drugs.
OUR COMMITMENT TO CLINICAL RESEARCH
Slocum-Dickson Medical Group (SDMG) has made a major commitment to performing quality research by creating the Clinical Research Department in early 2003. Appropriate support and expertise will be provided to all of our physicians who want to participate in clinical research. Previously, only a few physicians had the necessary administrative support to conduct studies. By creating this new department, naming a Director of Clinical Research, and hiring an experienced Clinical Research Program Manager, our goal is to centralize the clinical research activities. We expect to...
- ensure the safety of subject
- start studies rapidly
- increase recruitment activities
- complete study forms (CRFs, logs etc.) promptly and accurately
- maintain clinical research files
- standardize clinical research procedures throughout the facility
- ensure the quality of research that is performed at SDMG
