| I believe in the mission of Loma Linda University to educate and nurture student physicians who will practice medicine with caring, skill and respect for humanity. It is a privilege to be a part of the team that is responsible for so many physicians and other healthcare providers who leave LLU prepared to bring comfort and care to people around the world. I have a commitment to the importance of proficient clinical skills and diagnostic reasoning in providing cost-efficient patient-centered care. These beliefs underlie my efforts to provide effective learning modalities that allow students to apply basic science to clinical medicine in a safe environment. |
