Message from the Dean

It is with immense pride and enthusiasm that I address you as the Executive Vice President for Health Affairs and Dean of the University of Louisville School of Medicine. Having been a part of this remarkable community since I was in medical school later serving as a professor of surgery and otolaryngology, I am deeply honored to continue this journey with such a dedicated and talented group of learners, educators, researchers and staff.

The University of Louisville School of Medicine has a storied history as one of the nation's oldest and most respected institutions. We have always strived for excellence in education, research and patient care, consistently enhancing the health and well-being of our city, state and global community. Yet, our work is never complete. Together, we are embarking on a strategic plan that will strengthen the School of Medicine’s role as a leader in medical education and innovation.

This strategic plan serves as our roadmap to ensure that the School of Medicine remains a place where we not only learn and discover but also connect and collaborate in meaningful ways. Our vision for the future centers on improving the experience for everyone who walks through our doors– students, faculty, staff and patients.

None of this progress would be possible without the dedication and hard work of each of you. I am truly grateful for the passion you bring to advancing our mission and I look forward to all that we will accomplish together as we continue to elevate our school and our community.
