This is a valuable training program, for our future leaders and joint institutions l. We will lose candidates to other strong programs by eliminating it.

My friend who graduated from this program has spoken to me about her experience there, and her continuing relationship as a teacher and mentor. I am convinced that this program graduates students committed to primary care, something so needed in our state.

I am a traditional UCSF medical student, who benefited greatly from the insight and knowledge brought by my JMP colleagues. Please save this program!

This is one-of-a-kind, creates world-class doctors, and is irreplaceable!

A unique and important program that is needed in a time of health professional shortage in the United States and the state of California.

Please look for cuts in areas! The medical school is vital to the county, the area cities, and the state of California!

JMP has given the opportunity for me to grow as a physician and person. It would be a tremendous loss, and I am unclear why the appropriate funding is not available when so much tuition is collected from the students.

As physicians are asked to be increasingly active in addressing the non-medical aspects of health, the JMP is a leader in modeling the kind of education that can prepare future physicians to succeed in this new paradigm.

I'm a physician only because of the JMP. It would be a huge loss to California if it closes.

The JMP was a life-changing experience for me. It changed the way I think about health, medicine, and the world at large. Closing it would be a serious disservice to the medical community and patients who need care.

I'm a physician with 30 years experience in the Bay Area. JMP is a great program. The country needs more of them, not one less. it is more than worth the cost to support it.

The UCB-UCSF JMP is one of the best "realism" practice that UC can give their medical students. What a shame to not fund it and lose the program! With the onslaught and demand for more primary care providers, this is a step 10x backwards to the future. The use of PBL and IPE are all outstanding tools of learning that students will carry with them to the real world of medical practice. Shame on you UC Regents if you allow this to happen.

The JMP trained doctor I have had the privilege to be associated with, is the most caring, professional, dedicated, compassionate doctor I have ever met.

This is an amazing program I would like to be able to consider attending one day. The impact of this program cannot be measured accurately, but the benefit of well-rounded, well trained and thoughtful physicians is priceless. (In the best way.)

We all know that the JMP is a valuable program, training new physicians who bring with them special skills and talents and who contribute greatly to the medical community. Please don't close this valuable program!

The JMP is a valuable asset for our community. Funding for this program should be increased!

The JMP is a great program that must be present in Berkeley. Not only is it a prestigious program, it is a program that is essential to the community of Berkeley, especially those suffering from homelessness and poverty. The JMP are critical for the success of Suitcase Clinic, a student-run organization on campus whose main clients are those listed above. Please reconsider this decision and keep the JMP program at Berkeley.

We need more physicians in CA, particularly those dedicated to Family Medicine.
