Our hearts are broken at the loss of three members of our community, Devin Chandler, Lavel Davis Jr., and D’Sean Perry and our two UVA students currently receiving care from our medical center. Our #UVA family truly appreciates all the support from all over the country today. 🧡

Devin, Lavel and D’Sean were our classmates, teammates, friends and family. They were study partners and role models. They made us laugh and inspired us. They had dreams. They succeeded both on and off the field. They are forever Cavaliers. bit.ly/3E9n5JB #UVAStrong

Thinking about residency and resident recruitment. Sure we want stars…people who will be academic successes, clinical giants, etc….but give me residents who will be there for each other in times of need….I’ll take that 10 out of 10 times. UVA Surgery #HoosUVASurgery
