The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) has appointed Mark T. Nadeau, M.D., M.B.A., FAAFP, of UT Health San Antonio to the ACGME Review Committee for Family Medicine.

Dr. Nadeau is professor and residency program director in the Department of Family & Community Medicine of the Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians.

ACGME Review Committees meet twice annually to conduct accreditation review and additional business.

“It is an honor for the Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine to have Dr. Nadeau appointed to this review committee,” said Carlos R.
