Welcome to Memorial University’s Faculty of Medicine. You are joining an institution with a proud history of excellence in education, research, and service. We are committed to helping you flourish and thrive as a future physician

During your training, you will be asked to master complex scientific knowledge, develop sound clinical judgment, and cultivate the professionalism, integrity, and humility required of our profession. While this will be demanding work, you will not do it alone. Our faculty, staff, and clinical partners are deeply invested in your success and well-being, and they are committed to providing a learning environment that is rigorous, supportive, and respectful.

I encourage you to approach your studies with curiosity, openness, and purpose. Learn from one another, value diverse perspectives, and remain attentive to the needs of our    patients. Medicine is ultimately about relationships which are grounded in trust, compassion, and accountability. Those values should guide you throughout your training and beyond.

I look forward to meeting you and to learning alongside you as we work together to improve the health of the people we serve.
