The University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson celebrated 116 new physicians during their 2022 spring convocation at Centennial Hall. The new doctors will begin residencies at 63 hospitals in 28 states.

“These students have spent the bulk of their medical school education and their clinical rotations with a front-row seat to the pandemic. They understand the challenges their careers might have in store for them and are enthusiastic about rising up to meet those challenges,” said Michael M.I. Abecassis, MD, MBA, dean of the college. “I am so proud of the class of 2022. Their curiosity, compassion and the training they have received here will be with them wherever they go as they continue on their journeys as physicians.”

Degrees were conferred by UArizona President Robert C. Robbins, MD, and Dean Abecassis administered the Hippocratic Oath to the graduates.
