We pay tribute and our utmost respect to Dr. Rachael Marie Rosario, one of our founding consultants in the Division of Supportive, Hospice and Palliative Medicine.

You are a beacon of light who showed us the way and encouraged us to follow our dreams to become the best versions of ourselves as Palliative Care Specialists.

You were more than just a teacher; you were a friend, a mentor and a parent to all of us. Your legacy lies in the hearts of countless students and mentees who have been molded by your teachings.
