Douglas Moses, M.D. (’95), Associate Dean for Admissions and Student Affairs

As the chair of the College of Medicine Admissions committee, I lead the COM recruitment and admissions efforts and oversee COM Student Affairs. This allows me to chair the COM Admissions Committee and be part of molding a talented and diverse student body that encompasses the mission our college has developed.

In addition, I have the privilege of working with a stellar Student Affairs team to help students develop into a NEOMED physician.
