Abstract

Here you will find stories of people who take care of patients and do it with quality that is unrivaled in the healthcare field. You can measure this achievement by many means. With awards from US News and World Report and from the University Health System Consor- tium, we are consistently recognized as one of the best medical centers in the United States. Bold, but true. And our quality tells our story. In medical education, our residents routinely list their experience with faculty as one of the most impor- tant drivers they have. When our residents conclude their training, our program is always ranked as superior. In research, our projected 20 percent improvement in our NIH rankings shows the resources and the depth to transform medicine. In each of these areas, we are here to provide the best care now. So read on and learn our story. I believe you will find our narrative compelling and insightful.
