Rich Wender

We are thrilled to welcome our newest members of @UPenn_FMRP, Class of 2026! 🥳🫶🎉Welcome to Penn Medicine and the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health! #Match2023 #FMRevolution #FamilyMedicine

After almost 2 days of being with leaders in the #colorectalcancer space to discuss best ways to improve prevention, early detection & screening, I am just humbled to be included in these conversations as a passionate #cancer survivor & advocate! TY @NCCRTnews & @AmericanCancer

Ayiti-Carmel Maharaj-Best, MD, an assistant professor @Penn_DFMCH and a clinician @PennMedicine's LGBTQ Health Program shared with @EverydayHealth that many of her patients are recovering from a “lifetime of trauma. Some have high rates of depression, anxiety, and PTSD.”

Great start to @NLCRTnews “Accelerating the Uptake of Lung Cancer Screening” meeting today. Thanks to @ellakaz @RichWender John Williams @PresCancerPanel and many others for your leadership and partnership!

This 'natural experiment' proves, time and again, that WHERE you live can determine IF you live. This inequity is unacceptable. Congress can close the #CoverageGap and help all states experience the improved cancer and health outcomes associated with #Medicaid expansion.

We are so excited to announce the appointment of Richard C. Wender, MD (@RichWender) as Executive Director of the Center for Public Health Initiatives as of July 1, 2022!🎉Many thanks to @jenniferpintom3 for leading @PennPubHealth for the last 9 years! #PublicHealth #MPH @Penn
