STILLWATER -- Longtime physician and educator Dr. Gary Slick has been appointed Vice President for Academic Affairs and Senior Associate Dean at Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa. The announcement was made today at the meeting of the OSU/A&M Board of Regents.

Dr. Slick, who comes from Midwestern University’s Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine (CCOM), has extensive experience in the day-to-day operations of a medical school and residency programs. During his 20-year tenure at CCOM, he served as Chairman of the Department of Internal Medicine, Program Director of the Residency Program and Associate Dean of Medical Education.

A 1969 graduate of the Kansas City College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Slick completed his internship and residency training in Internal Medicine at Oklahoma Osteopathic Hospital, now named Tulsa Regional Medical Center (TRMC). He then completed a Fellowship in Nephrology at the University of Iowa. In 1974 he joined Michigan State University as Associate Clinical Professor and became Director of the Clinical Clerkship Program at Detroit Osteopathic Hospital.

“Dr. Slick’s vast knowledge of teaching medical students and managing residency programs will be invaluable for OSU as we work with the state legislature to stabilize our physician training programs at TRMC,” says Dr. John Fernandes, president and dean of the Center for Health Sciences. “We are fortunate to have Dr. Slick’s skills and passion to help produce outstanding physicians for Oklahoma and beyond.”

On the national level, Dr. Slick served as Executive Director and Chairman of the American Osteopathic Board of Internal Medicine and President of the American College of Osteopathic Internists. He was editorial reviewer for the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association for more than 16 years.
