“All of you in this room are future physicians and surgeons, but you also have the potential to be future public health leaders.”

Last week, Commissioner Taylor delivered Grand Rounds remarks to student physicians at the Johns Hopkins School of Anesthesiology & Critical Care Medicine. At the Baltimore City Health Department, we recognize the essential connection between medicine and public health, and the importance advancing both for the health of our community. Thank you to Drs. Adam Milam, Katherine Hoops, Michael Banks, and Jordan Kurzum for the invitation.
