How to Contact Administrators and Faculty

The best way to reach most faculty for non-urgent matters is by email. Faculty can be found in the Outlook Address Book. For urgent matters, the Clinical Course Directors and faculty can be text-paged. For emergencies, page to a phone number.

How to Contact Course Leadership

Contact information for individual courses is not listed here as this may change from year-to-year. Contact information for M1/M2 course leadership includes block administrators or course directors and faculty listed in individual course guides available on Entrada. Contact information for M3/M4 course leadership includes course directors and coordinators and is available in the OASIS Course Catalog.
