This January, the MCV Campus bids farewell to a leader who guided VCU Health with discerning vision, a tenacious work ethic and an unmatched compassion for people.

Marsha Rappley, M.D., retired from her position as CEO of VCU Health System and senior vice president for health sciences at VCU this January.

2019 has been an amazing year on the MCV Campus at VCU Health. New facilities have opened and begun construction, grateful patients and alumni have made incredible contributions to the campus’s future, and the MCV Foundation has made new friends across Central Virginia who we know will be partners in advancing patient care, research and education for many years to come.

In 1989, longtime Richmond newspaperman Ross Mackenzie was diagnosed for the first time with lymphoma. Thirty years later, he has penned a love letter to the MCV Campus.
