Brody School of Medicine

Brody School of Medicine

Since 1977, Brody has graduated nearly 2,400 doctors, many of whom are relieving the state's shortage of primary care physicians in rural and underserved areas. We strive to make communities healthier, but we need your support.

Service is at the core of who we are as Pirates and doctors. Your generosity will help fill critical health care gaps in diverse rural areas. Your gifts will be part of the reason our university is seen as a leader in advancing health care across the region and beyond. Together, we can transform lives that transform the world.
