Rochus Voeller, MD, Awarded Office of Graduate Medical Education Clinical Teaching Excellence Award

Rochus Voeller, MD, Associate Professor in the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, has been awarded the Office of Graduate Medical Education Clinical Teaching Excellence Award. 

This award is granted annually to clinical faculty who have scored in the top ten on the standardized trainee evaluation of faculty performance administered by the Office of Graduate Medical Education during the past academic year.

Additionally, this recognition is particularly meaningful because it is based solely on residents' and fellows' evaluation of faculty performance in their role as educators.

Excerpts from the narrative comments provided by trainees in their evaluations display an appreciation for Dr. Voeller's calmness under pressure, the autonomy he grants trainees in the operating room, and his passion for teaching. 

Congratulations, Dr. Voeller, and thank you for your exceptional commitment to providing our trainees with an excellent educational experience!
