Our Mission: To increase the diversity of our faculty and residency program, support programs and research initiatives aimed at eradicating disparity, and create an equitable environment where surgeons, staff, trainees, and patients of all backgrounds are valued and welcomed.

JEDI Surgery is a continued work in progress composed of multiple, complex, and evolving areas of effort. As a department, our goals are to become a benchmark for the delivery of socially conscious and equitable care to surgical patients and for providing an equitable environment where all individuals of all backgrounds are valued and welcomed.
