Message From The Chairman:

The DOM’s October issue of the electronic newsletter describes the extraordinary successes of our faculty, staff, trainees, and students. We completed the 2018 Academic Year with record-breaking achievement in new research grant funding, clinical volume (wRVUs), financial performance, revenue per unit of clinical work, and residents’ scores on the national in-training exam. Achievement at this level only occurs through the collective efforts of all members of our department. In academic medicine, we often reserve the greatest praise for individual achievement, yet the department ultimately succeeds only through the commitment of all its members to respecting one another, encouraging people with diverse viewpoints and backgrounds, and by holding ourselves accountable to the highest standards of excellence. In this edition of the newsletter, we celebrate the accomplishments and contributions of the people in our department. I feel privileged to work shoulder to shoulder with you and hope you enjoy the newsletter!
