Department of Medicine faculty honored by the Rollins Leadership Fund

In 2018, the Paul W. Seavey Clinic was named the beneficiary of a generous gift from the Rollins Foundation to establish a Rollins Leadership Fund. The gift created the Rollins Directorship of the Paul W. Seavey Comprehensive Internal Medicine Clinic, as well as up to five Rollins Professorships. Together with the previous 2013 O. Wayne Rollins Clinical Excellence Fund that established the Rollins Distinguished Clinicianships, this gift has provided exciting opportunities for Department of Medicine faculty members.

The Rollins Professorships, Senior Distinguished Clinicianships, and the Distinguished Clinicianships were created to reward physicians who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to personal and professional development, personal integrity, and exceptional patient care and satisfaction. The recipients have also shown dedication to teamwork and significant participation and/or leadership in Seavey Clinic programs.

Please join the Department of Medicine in congratulating this year’s Rollins Leadership Fund recipients. These appointments will be effective September 1, 2022.
