"Medical Education Day makes a statement of how important we value the educational mission here at Feinberg. Without the excellence of medical educators who work every day with our students and residents, we would not be producing high-quality physicians — so I appreciate that we pause and recognize educational excellence."
Walter Eppich, MD, PhD, Director of FAME
