Avenues are choices. When managing disease, there are many different
possibilities and actions one can take. The Pine Street Foundation, through
this newsletter, seeks to illuminate some of these choices through evidence-based
research in the hopes that by having more options, patients and health
care providers will be able to make better, more informed treatment decisions.
