Senior Physicians Committee Features Uofl School of Medicine Dean Toni Ganzel, MD
On Tuesday, October 8, the GLMS Senior Physicians Committee welcomed guest speaker Dr. Toni Ganzel, Dean of the UofL School of Medicine (ULSOM).
Dr. Ganzel gave a snapshot of the medical school since its founding 183 years ago. “As I love to tell people, I think in our 183 years we have aged well; we have had phenomenal growth and transformative change, but our mission is the same: to improve the health of our patients and our community.”
She went on to further expand on ULSOM’s mission, explaining that it could be broken down into four parts: educating the next generation of physicians and scientists, conducting research that makes a difference in the lives of people, providing cutting-edge tertiary quaternary and primary care to our patients; and partnering with our community towards shared goals of health.
Following her presentation, Dr. Ganzel accepted questions from the senior physicians in attendance. We thank her for sharing with us the accomplishments and future goals of the UofL School of Medicine.
