Detroit Free Press, 5/2 More hospitals in Michigan look to care for patients through music By Patricia Anstett A feature story examining the therapeutic benefits of music, mentions the Detroit Medical Orchestra, a 2-year-old symphony made up of doctors, students and nurses from the Wayne State University School of Medicine and several metro Detroit hospitals. While the music has healing power for patients, it also helps Dr. Michael Cher, chief of urology at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Institute, unwind the night before surgery when he plays the clarinet in rehearsals. "It relaxes me ... before a heavy day in the operating room," he said.
