A Tradition of Excellence

We are here to pass on to the next generation the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of the ‘complete physician’. The very word doctor means teacher; as doctors, we teach our patients, we teach our students, we teach our colleagues, we teach the public, and we must always teach ourselves. We aim to teach our students to marry rigorous scientific knowledge and humane, compassionate care. And we have succeeded. Our graduates are distinguished not only by their exemplary patient care, but also by their remarkable academic achievements.

The dedication of our alumni, alumnae and faculty to outstanding teaching, research and patient care gave rise to the Tufts tradition of excellence and is what continues to carry our reputation forward today. We hope that you are proud to be affiliated with Tufts and that you continue to engage with the Tufts Medicine community and stay in touch with your classmates, mentors, and with us here at TUSM.

- Michael Rosenblatt, M.D.
Dean, Tufts University School of Medicine
