I can think
of no other organization that has proved to be a more worthwhile investment of our time and resources.
I highly recommend
the Academy's activities to other organizations.


— Steven Epstein, Founder and Senior Partner, Epstein Becker & Green, 2001







This was my first experience with the Academy for International Health studies with my Sweden visit. I was extremely impressed by the Academy and organization of the activities. Meeting others from around the world that share common healthcare challenges and issues was also very informative. I really look forward to participating in the next trip and plan to encourage others within my organization and other healthcare executives to participate.

— LLoyd Dean, President and CEO, Catholic Healthcare West, 2004

... I can't think of any better opportunity I have had in my 24 years in this industry to network with fellow CEOs and the trip's Patrons. Not only was I able to renew and strengthen old relationships, but I made several new friends in the health industry.

— Mickey Herbert, Chief Executive Officer, Physicians Health Services & Chair of the Board, American Association of Health Plans, 1997
