OUM Zoom Webinar Event

As Dean for North America and Director of Clinical Education and Faculty, Dean Boone works closely with clinical teaching facilities to arrange rotations for OUM’s US and Canadian students. She also leads the University’s USMLE Prep Programs for Step 1 and Step 2, working with students to prepare them for these important hurdle exams. Her efforts have proven successful — OUM has had a 100 percent USMLE passing rate since the prep program began. She also helps North American students prepare their residency and MATCH applications and is currently arranging for the first North American Graduation Ceremony since before the pandemic.

Dr. Boone has been on the OUM faculty since 2015 in several capacities, as an Assistant Professor of Medicine, Academic Advisor, and Mini-Case Facilitator. In addition to her MD, Dr. Boone earned a Master of Science in Health Informatics Management from the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine in Tampa, Florida. She has extensive experience with electronic medical records systems/telemedicine, e-learning technologies, and database analytics. In 2018 Dr. Boone was a Chief Medical Information Officer at Pemiscot Memorial Hospital System (PMHS) in Missouri (US), having been an active clinician at ten rural health centers and two urgent care centers within the PMHS.

She works hard to know each of the North American students and strives to find ways to get the students together to network and learn from each other whenever possible.
