Leadership
Welcome to UW Medicine.
It is my great privilege and honor to lead UW Medicine as CEO and Dean of the University of Washington School of Medicine. UW Medicine is an integrated clinical, research and learning health system with a single mission to improve the health of the public, for all people. This goal inspires and unites our community of 35,000-plus faculty, clinicians, staff, students and trainees every day.
UW Medicine serves a unique role in our communities guided by our core values and our amazing and dedicated people. We strive to provide high-quality, equitable care for all people, to advance scientific discovery, to educate future healthcare professionals and scientists, and to promote more just, equitable, and healthy communities.
We offer patients a wide range of choices for primary, specialty and urgent care with hospitals and clinics located throughout the Puget Sound region. We are also making substantial improvements in how we deliver care by focusing on the patient experience and quality of care, the health of the population we serve, the need to overcome healthcare inequities and the well-being of our employees. As we make decisions, we believe strongly in a principle that patients are first. This work is fully aligned with the changing healthcare landscape, and it makes us a national leader in helping people live healthier lives.
With more than $1 billion per year in research funding, we continue to grow collaborative multidisciplinary research programs that lead the world in biomedical research. We are shortening the time from scientific discovery to finding new ways to prevent, cure and treat heart disease, stroke, cancer, dementia and many other common and rare diseases. As UW Medicine health professionals bring their discoveries into our clinical practice, we provide hope to patients and often a quicker return to health.
Our School of Medicine has six campuses across our five-state WWAMI region (Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho) focused on addressing healthcare workforce shortages and improving access to care through community-based-education and our commitment to serving rural and underserved communities. Our students receive more hands-on training, learn effective and respectful communication skills, understand the importance of healthcare equity and are prepared to be leaders in their communities. Patients are already benefiting from this new training in our health system.
As I look to the future, I am confident that we will remain committed to our core values and our mission to improve health for all people through the integration of our clinical, equity, research, education and well-being activities.
