Dear colleagues,

Excellence in medicine begins with the people who teach, mentor, and care for others. Today, we celebrate the educators and clinicians who make Emory a place of learning, healing, and belonging.

 

The Dean’s Teaching, Mentoring, and Preceptor of the Year awards honor faculty whose creativity, compassion, and dedication inspire our learners every day. The Inclusive Excellence Award recognizes colleagues who promote a welcoming and supportive environment to benefit the Emory community. The new Adult Primary Care (APC) Site of the Year Award celebrates a highly rated APC site with multiple preceptors who consistently demonstrate excellence in teaching and commitment to our students' clinical education. 

 

We also celebrate the clinicians recognized for their outstanding patient care, clinical innovation, and leadership across our affiliated health care sites. Through your expertise and empathy, our patients and learners alike experience what it means to practice medicine with heart.

 

Thank you for making education and care inseparable and for showing our learners that medicine is as much an art as a science.

 

With gratitude,

Sandra
