We are proud to celebrate Dr. Jennifer Mendez, recipient of the 2025 Mildred Seltzer Distinguished Service Honor, for her lifelong dedication to gerontology education, service-learning, and community-centered healthcare.
Emeritus Associate Professor of Internal Medicine - Geriatrics at the Wayne State University School of Medicine, Dr. Mendez has influenced the sphere of medical education because of his compassion, purpose, and service commitment. The career indicates her commitment, indeed, to educate healthcare professionals about the importance of being empathic, equitable, and caring of the community.
Dr. Mendez was instrumental in the construction of the Service-Learning Program at Wayne State University (WSU) - a program that helps to bridge classroom training and real needs of a community. This is an award-winning program to enable the student to know that social responsibility and healthcare are two aspects that should hand in hand. Her leadership enables future doctors to know how to treat patients as people rather than cases.
Dr. Mendez has throughout her career endeavoured to unite the various disciplines together; medicine, social work, and community service in order to enhance care provision to the elderly. Her shows have demonstrated that clinical skill is not as important as teamwork and empathy.
Her work has won admiration not only in the United States but also in the entire world. Dr. The concepts of Mendez have shaped the health collaboration and education frameworks that prioritize the aging groups and social justice. She still mentors teachers and students who embrace her interest in lifelong learning and community health.
