Reporting a Professionalism Concern

Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine is committed to maintaining a learning environment characterized by respect and professionalism. If you have either been the recipient of or witnessed unprofessional behavior from a faculty member, resident or other healthcare provider, then it should be reported.

We take reports seriously and work to protect confidentiality as possible given the nature of the event. SSOM is committed to a policy that supports the timely disclosure of these concerns and prohibits retaliation against any student who reports such concerns. If you have concerns regarding confidentiality in reporting, please contact Associate Dean, James Mendez at 708-216-8140 or by email at jamendez@luc.edu
