We were honored to welcome a group of second-year medical students from the UC Berkeley/UCSF Joint Medical Program to CHRMC during their recent visit to Washington, DC. Focused on health equity and social justice, the students spent time learning about our services, learning key departments and engaging in thoughtful discussion with hospital leadership.

The visit held special significance, as one of the students, Douglas Washington Morris II, is a descendant of Frederick Douglass. He was joined by his grandmother, Nettie Washington Douglass, the great-great-granddaughter of Frederick Douglass and great-granddaughter of Booker T. Washington and his father, Douglas Washington Morris. Prior to visiting CHRMC, the group toured the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site, including Cedar Hill, where Douglass lived for his final 17 years and the home that inspired our hospital’s name.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to connect with future physicians and share how CHRMC services and supports our community.
