Rounds Notes

Dr. Sea Rogers Williams examines sea turtle patient "Fletcher" in preparation for release.

Welcome to Rounds Notes!  Rounds Notes reviews and updates you on the medical cases at the center.  Rounds Notes is fashioned after the rapidly paced, detailed, gruelingly arcane, and intense scrutiny found in the medical rounds given to interns at Mass General, or as seen in the TV sitcom Scrubs.

We review the diagnosis, treatment, and progress of animals under our care.  We also present the relevant information that we learn about the health of the ocean and marine environment through the study of spontaneous naturally occurring diseases that affect our patients.

Rounds Notes is geared for an internal and professional audience and eagerly shared with our supporters to provide you with a unique and pool-side relationship with the animals and their diseases and conditions, the staff and their trials and triumphs, and the volunteers of the National Marine Life Center.

Feel free to contact author Dr. “Sea” Rogers Williams, NMLC’s Veterinarian and Science Director, if you have questions.
