Good named senior associate dean for clinical affairs
Michael L. Good, M.D., has been appointed senior associate dean for clinical affairs in the College of Medicine. He will succeed Dr. Nicholas Cassisi, who is retiring, effective July 1.
A professor of anesthesiology, Good joined the faculty of the college in 1988. A graduate of the University of Michigan and its medical school, he completed his residency in anesthesiology at UF. During his residency and later as a faculty member, he was instrumental in developing the Human Patient Simulator that is now widely used in medical education.
In 1994 Good became chief of anesthesiology at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center and later served as chief of staff of the VA, returning to the UF anesthesiology faculty in 2003. Last year he was appointed senior associate dean for VA affiliations.
Good, who said his new job is to “assure the success of the clinical enterprise,” was appointed following an internal search.
