As of Jan. 1, Julie Byerley, MD, MPH, is officially part of the Geisinger family, assuming duties as Geisinger executive vice president and chief academic officer and president and dean of the Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine.

“Geisinger provides a unique opportunity to have an impact,” Dr. Byerley says. “I’ve been very interested in what today’s doctors need in their portfolio and skill set to really make a difference in modern healthcare delivery. There’s more in medicine to learn than one can ever know, so we must set priorities about what we are going to demand from each student and how we will prepare them to serve patients and populations. Geisinger is very pragmatic about how we take good care of people. There’s a great willingness to think differently and to innovate. We agree that we must think from the patient’s perspective about what making better health easy looks like.”
