Humanism in Medicine

Our values guide and shape the development of the School of Medicine. Humanism is one of the ten essential values that guide the school.

Humanism

We recognize that only through a comprehensive understanding and appreciation of the human condition will we successfully develop and nurture a culture and community of physicians who will care for themselves, their patients, and their colleagues with compassion, tolerance, respect and empathy. This commitment to a curriculum that recognizes, teaches, and rewards humanism enables us to support a culture and environment truly dedicated to healing and promoting health.
