The Bucksbaum Institute for Clinical Excellence was established in September 2011 with a $42 million endowment gift from the Matthew and Carolyn Bucksbaum Family Foundation. The Institute's mission is to improve patient care, strengthen the doctor-patient relationship, enhance communication and decision-making in healthcare, and reduce healthcare disparities through research and education programs for medical students, junior faculty, and master clinicians of the Institute.
