Alfred F. Connors Jr., MD

Vice Chair of Finance and Investment

Elected: 2009

Dr. Alfred F. Connors Jr. is MetroHealth's Emeritus Chair of Medicine.

Why I serve on The MetroHealth Foundation Board: Since the day I arrived at MetroHealth in June 1974, I have been proud to serve our mission. It is a challenging mission that requires outstanding care and compassion for each individual who comes to us while also taking responsibility for the health of the community at large. The beauty of MetroHealth is that everyone who works here understands the mission and understands how what they do serves that mission.  It is why we work together so well.

The true secret of MetroHealth is our respect and admiration for the people we serve. We see the strength, the courage, and the goodness of our patients. We are proud to give them the excellent care they deserve. We are all committed to eradicating the disparities in health caused by poverty, hunger, homelessness, and other social ills.

I serve on the MetroHealth Foundation Board to make sure that MetroHealth continues to serve our patients, our community and our mission, not just today, but 50 and 100 years from now.
