Christopher and Sara Connor Chair in Integrative Health

Francoise Adan, MD, is the inaugural Christopher M. and Sara H. Connor Chair in Integrative Health. In 2017, the Connors reinforced their commitment to the UH Connor Integrative Health Network with a gift of $6.5 million, a portion of which was used to elevate the endowed master clinician position the couple previously created in 2015. “Creating a chair signifies, on behalf of the hospital and the donor, that a discipline is really important and will be there forever,” said Chris. “We’re proud to give Francoise this title and show others that integrative medicine is a critical part of UH.”

Endowed Chairs, Directors and Master Clinicians are prestigious titles at University Hospitals which are awarded to leading physicians and administrators, recognizing profound contributions in healthcare and the potential for continued innovation. They are sources of support, providing dedicated funds for research, education and training in perpetuity. And they are, above all else, inspiring reminders of our community’s generosity, each a lasting legacy for individuals and families that will endure for generations.
