After an incredible career dedicated to helping others, Dr. Ralph Olson is beginning a well-deserved retirement. From his early studies in psychology to earning his Ph.D. in Clinical Child Psychology and building a successful career in private practice, Dr. Olson has made a lasting impact on countless individuals and learners along the way.
As our residency program’s behavioral medicine educator, he helped residents better understand mental health, develop strong communication skills, support healthy lifestyle changes, and prioritize physician wellness. His patience, humor, and exceptional teaching style made him a favorite among residents and colleagues alike.
Congratulations, Dr. Olson, on your retirement! Thank you for the wisdom, guidance, and compassion you've shared throughout the years. Your presence will be greatly missed, but the lessons you've taught will continue to inspire generations of physicians. Wishing you all the best in this exciting new chapter.

The Residency Graduate Dinner is a cherished tradition that gives faculty, staff, residents, and families an opportunity to celebrate our graduates and their accomplishments. The evening included tributes from faculty mentors and the presentation of the program’s signature rock clocks. Just as no two clocks are alike, each resident leaves a unique mark on our program and community.
