Positions

overview

  • The purpose of this application is to request promotion from the rank of Associate Professor to Professor under Clinical Educator Track with Tenure.

    As of July 2024, I have celebrated 20 years of commitment to The University of Toledo Medical Center. My journey at UTMC began in 2004 as an Internal Medicine Resident. After establishing a solid foundation in Internal Medicine, I pursued further training in Geriatric Medicine. After completing my fellowship, I returned to Toledo to advance my career in academic medicine. My training did not end at this transition, and I completed the requisites and received board certification in Hospice and Palliative Medicine.

    According to the ABIM data, as of 2021, there are only 5,206 valid certificates for Geriatric Medicine and 5,068 for Hospice and Palliative Medicine. The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) estimates that by 2034, the U.S. population will grow by 10.6 percent, with an estimated 42 percent increase in individuals over the age of 65. Currently, there are only 7,300 geriatricians in the U.S., yielding roughly 1.07 geriatricians for every 10,000 geriatric patients. The number of physicians with dual certification remains even smaller. I am thrilled to represent UTMC locally, regionally, and nationally with these credentials.

    The University of Toledo has provided me with opportunities to grow as a healthcare provider while making clinical and administrative contributions.  I am committed to continually growing and challenging myself to achieve higher and better outcomes through teaching, mentorship, and research.
