HistoryThe Southeastern College of Osteopathic Medicine (SECOM) was established in 1979 in North Miami Beach, Florida by Morton Terry, D.O. Because of SECOM's success, a College of Pharmacy was added in 1986 and a College of Optometry in 1988, thus creating the Southeastern University of Health Sciences.
