faculty, staff, and residents gathered for our annual Department Retreat last Friday at historic UNM Hodgin Hall. We reviewed our UNMSOM draft strategic plan and discussed how our own Department initiatives align, especially in preparation for the upcoming LCME accreditation. After lunch together discussing optimizing our Grand Rounds programming and learning, our residents broke off for their own team-based retreat, for a weekend in Taos (Northern NM) including beautiful hikes and sharing meals together. Our faculty and administrative staff spent a fabulous afternoon at Meltdown Studio working on a hands-on project, promoting teamwork while appreciating the complexity of jewelry making techniques. Thank you to everyone for your active and engaged participation - we look forward to what the next year will bring!

had a quick visit from our retired Mohs surgeon and esteemed UNM/VA faculty, Dr. Phil Strange – we toured the newly expanded Mohs facility and had a mini reunion with our wonderful Mohs tech Paula Padilla (she and Dr Strange had worked together for many years, including at Lovelace before UNM!). It is always so great to see you Dr. Strange – we appreciate your ongoing connection.
