THE GOOD YEARS

VA Medical Center
IN AUGUST, AFTER A DECADE LEADING THE
UF COLLEGE OF MEDICINE, Good did leave
his post as dean — but not to teach one
day a week or to write his memoir. The
University of Utah recruited Good to lead
its sprawling, multibillion-dollar health
system. He was named senior vice president
of health sciences, CEO of University of
Utah Health and executive dean of its
School of Medicine in June.
“Life takes many twists and turns, some
anticipated and some not,” Good said. “It’s
always difficult to select a new trail when the
current one has been so fulfilling.”
The UF College of Medicine has experienced
remarkable growth and achievements
over the last 10 years under the leadership
of Good and David S. Guzick, MD, PhD,
who stepped down as senior vice president
of health affairs at UF and president of UF
Health in July. The college revised its
medical education curriculum
to focus on active, team-based
learning, built an impressive
new building to align with the
modern principles of teaching
and learning, made significant
