Caring for Our Community

At Eric B. Chandler Health Center, our goal is to eliminate barriers to obtaining quality, family-oriented primary and dental health care for our diverse, multicultural population by providing comprehensive acute and chronic care to patients of all ages, as well as a broad spectrum of social services and community-based health and wellness programs.

In Memory of Clarence Roy Epps Jr.

It is with profound sadness that we pay tribute to Clarence Roy Epps Jr., who passed away on March 12 at the age of 79. Roy made an important contribution to the medical school through the Eric B. Chandler Health Center. It was his vision, along with those of former Dean Richard Reynolds, the New Brunswick Board of Education, and Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, that created Chandler Health Center in 1987.

Roy served as president of the Chandler Board and spent numerous terms as a board member. Chandler Health Center has touched the lives of many patients, staff, faculty and learners who have been involved with the school. Roy was a key advisor and mentor to the deans of community health, including Eric G. Jahn, MD, the current senior associate dean for community and global health; Denise V. Rodgers, MD, who now serves as vice chancellor of interprofessional programs at Rutgers Health; and Anita CurranPhD, when it came to issues facing the New Brunswick community.
