Orthopaedic oncologist C. Parker Gibbs Jr, M.D., chief medical officer for UF Health Shands, was named senior associate dean for clinical affairs for the UF College of Medicine, a position most recently held by Timothy C. Flynn, M.D., until his retirement last September after nine years in the role. Marvin Dewar, M.D., J.D., will remain UF College of Medicine senior associate dean and chief executive officer of UF Health Physicians.

In May, Mark Segal, M.D., Ph.D., was named UF College of Medicine senior associate dean for faculty affairs and professional development, and Ellen Zimmermann, M.D., was appointed UF College of Medicine associate dean for faculty development. These positions address areas of responsibility previously overseen by Marian Limacher, M.D., who retired in April.

Together, they make up a strong leadership team that will focus on continuing to propel the college forward in the ongoing provision of safe, high-quality patient care and excellence in the patient experience, as well as to support our faculty in their efforts to grow professionally and succeed across all missions.
