High-Profile Doctor to Leave Position at Cleveland Clinic
By STEPHANIE SAUL
Published: February 10, 2006
The public face of the Cleveland Clinic, its outspoken cardiology chairman, Dr. Eric J. Topol, is leaving for academia after a divisive yearlong dispute with the clinic's chief executive, Dr. Delos M. Cosgrove.
Both Dr. Topol and Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland, his new employer, announced the move yesterday. Dr. Topol is scheduled to become a professor of genetics at the Case school of medicine, which is affiliated with the Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Topol said the job was a temporary appointment that would allow him to focus on his primary area of research, the genetics of heart disease.
I think it would be reasonable to expect the Clinic's cardiology department to be gutted in the near future.By STEPHANIE SAUL
