Thank you to Dr. Melvin Blanchard for your 25 years of teaching, educating & mentoring at Washington University School of Medicine, 14 of which were served as the Division Chief & Program Director for Medical Education. Best wishes to you and Dr. Erica Johnson on your next role in Baltimore.

As Dr. Blanchard vacates leadership of the Division of General Medicine, Dr. Tom De Fer, Associate Dean of Medical Student Education, will serve as the interim Chief. With over 22 years of experience with our division, we’re excited to have his expertise in medical education leading us.
