Join Us in Celebrating

Clinician Reviews is celebrating its 25th year of publication in 2015. As the journal’s PA and NP Editors-in-Chief, we would like to be among the first to congratulate the publication on this milestone anniversary.

Paging through the inaugural issue (February 1991) today is an indication of how much has changed in 25 years (and, at the same time, how much hasn’t). In that issue, the editors acknowledged the service of military PAs and NPs who were deployed during Operation Desert Storm (at the time, a current conflict) and introduced an AIDS Update department because “the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) shows little sign of abating.”

Despite the passage of time, CR remains faithful to the editorial purpose established more than two decades ago. It was “designed to provide you with the information you need to keep abreast of the changes in medicine that occur on a daily basis.” And to the present day, the editorial staff and the editorial board have maintained their commitment to providing peer-reviewed, clinician-authored content that helps NPs and PAs provide the best possible patient care in an increasingly challenging environment. The journal has never lost its focus on primary care—the heart of health care in the United States—while acknowledging that primary care clinicians manage a wide variety of disease states and conditions.

The true strength of the journal has always been, and continues to be, the people affiliated with it. Special thanks to the dedicated editorial staff: Karen J. Clemments (Editor), Ann M. Hoppel (Managing Editor), Fran Hopkins (Senior Editor), and Kristen Garafano (Web Editor). This noteworthy anniversary would not be complete without extending special thanks to past Editors Robert E. De Donato, Jean Paternoster, and Maura Griffin, and longtime Senior Editor Christine Mooney Lukesh, who retired last year.

In addition, we acknowledge that no journal can be successful without the support and guidance of its editorial board. We have been especially blessed with colleagues from both the PA and NP professions—many of whom have been on the board for a decade or longer. Their names are listed here.

We, as Editors-in-Chief, would particularly like to thank you—our readers and colleagues—for your thoughtful feedback on our monthly editorials. It is rewarding to think that we have fostered discussion and fruitful debate on issues relevant to our professions—and we gain just as much perspective as we hope to impart. To those of you who have contributed manuscripts over the years, know that we are grateful for your professionalism, generosity with your time and expertise, and commitment to enhancing the knowledge of your fellow practitioners.

So, as CR marks its 25th anniversary, we invite our authors, peer reviewers, and readers to join us in celebrating. Thank you for your support for the past 25 years. Here’s to many more.
