The Tulsa University Faculty of Community Medicine (TUFCM) is an academic unit within The University of Tulsa that supports the Tulsa School of Community Medicine (TSCM). Along with the faculty listed above, additional faculty of the TUFCM include:

Professor
Gerard Clancy
Clinical Professor
Elmus Beale

The TSCM is a medical school which is being established under joint sponsorship of The University of Tulsa and the University of Oklahoma. It will draw faculty from both institutions with medical science faculty largely resident at The University of Tulsa and clinical faculty predominantly drawn from the University of Oklahoma.

The TUFCM is under the administrative authority of the Dean of the College of Health Sciences of The University of Tulsa. Faculty in TUFCM will teach in the TSCM, and in that role their curriculum and supervision will be under the dean of the medical school.

The school is being established to address the need for more medical doctors in Oklahoma, especially ones who work in family practice, internal medicine and pediatrics in underserved rural and urban communities. The school will follow a curriculum that integrates medical science and clinical experience required to earn the M.D. degree. The details of accreditation, curriculum, facilities and staffing are under accelerated development at the time of publication of this Bulletin. New medical students have been accepted and begin medical school classes in August 2015.
