New York City, New York May 18, 2021 (Issuewire.com) - Recognized as a dependable internist & geriatrician, Dr. Korkigian has been in practice for over four decades. He works at Progressive Healthcare PC in Berkeley, Michigan. 

Professionally, he is also affiliated with several medical centers and hospitals throughout the state of Michigan, including Detroit Medical Center; Beaumont Hospital, Farmington Hills; Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak; Ascension Providence Hospital - Novi Campus; and Ascension Providence Hospital - Southfield Campus.

Alongside his clinical role, he serves on the teaching faculty of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at Beaumont Hospital, Farmington Hills, and is a Clinical Professor at the Michigan State College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Back in 1978, Dr. Korkigian graduated with his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from the Kansas City University College of Osteopathic Medicine. Upon graduation, he went on to complete his internship and residency in internal medicine at Beaumont Hospital, Farmington Hills in 1979 and 1982, respectively. 

Following his training, he became board-certified in internal medicine and geriatric medicine through the American Osteopathic Board of Internal Medicine (AOBIM). The AOBIM is an organization that provides board certification to qualified Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine who specialize in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disease in adults.

Holding membership status with several professional organizations, Dr. Korkigian is a member of the American Osteopathic Association, the American College of Osteopathic Internist, the Michigan Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons and remains as the Chief of the Department of Medicine at William Beaumont Farmington Hills for the last 10 years.

Internal medicine is the medical specialty dealing with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of adult diseases. Physicians specializing in internal medicine are called internists. They manage and prevent common and complex diseases by providing comprehensive care and promoting overall well-being.

Geriatrics, or geriatric medicine, is a specialty that focuses on the health care of elderly people. It aims to promote health by preventing and treating diseases and disabilities in older adults. Geriatricians are physicians who work primarily with the elderly. Although they address their patients' multiple medical problems and chronic illnesses, geriatricians focus primarily on the quality of life and functional ability. They determine when it is no longer medically safe for seniors to live alone and counsel them on alternative living arrangements, as well as counsel patients and families on end-of-life care.

On a more personal note, Dr. Korkigian speaks both English and Armenian.

Madi Mojdeh defies fatigue to strike silver, bronze as La Salle Green Hills nears NCAA back-to-back titles

MANILA, Philippines — La Salle Green Hills (LSGH) standout Behrouz Mohammad ‘Madi’ Mojdeh added two more medals to his tally in the NCAA Season 102 swimming competitions at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Manila. The 15-year-old standout from the Behrouz Elite Swimming Team (BEST) captured one silver and one bronze, bringing his total collection to one gold, three silvers, and two bronze medals. The reigning NCAA Rookie of the Year claimed the silver in the 200m butterfly with a time of two minutes and 10.31 seconds. The gold medal remained within LSGH as teammate Kristian Yugo Cabana secured the top spot by clocking 2:09.34. “I was really happy to finally break the 2:10 barrier in the 200 Fly. Unfortunately, I was only 0.09 seconds away from breaking the NCAA record, but I'm still very happy with my new personal best and another gold medal in butterfly,” Cabana said. In fact, LSGH swept the event as Gilbert Gonzalvo secured the bronze with a time of 2:12.48. Mojdeh added a bronze in a grueling 400m Individual Medley, clocking 4:45.91—close behind silver medalist Ashton Jose of Letran, who finished with 4:55.25. “Swimming the 200 Fly and 400 IM back-to-back, twice in one day, was really exhausting, especially since I barely had time to recover. But I didn't want to hold back in one event just to save energy for the other. Because I felt like, if I was going to do that, then what was all my hard work in training for?” Mojdeh shared. After being disqualified in the 400m IM last year, Mojdeh expressed joy at bouncing back with a new personal best. “Last year, I got disqualified in the 400 IM, which was really disappointing, but I had to move on quickly because I still had my 200 Fly. This year, I'm really happy that I got new PBs in both events and finished on the podium,” said Mojdeh. “Honestly, on the last lap, I felt like I was about to die already, but I just kept pushing because I didn't want all those hours of training to go to waste,” Mojdeh added. Mojdeh was thrilled that every event he entered this edition resulted in new personal best times. “Of course, I still want to win gold, but I'm happy with my progress. I know I still have a lot to improve, and I'll just keep trusting my training and my coaches. At least I know I gave everything I had, and that's what matters to me,” Mojdeh said. At the close of the third day of competition, the LSGH tankers are within striking distance of securing back-to-back titles in the boys’ division after accumulating a total of 605 points. San Beda University sits in a distant second place with 331.50 points, while Letran is third with 235.50 points. TMT
