A sad day for the family medicine community. David was a wonderful person, a talented researcher, a dedicated public servant and he represented our the best of our discipline throughout his career. I know many in the #AAFP community are mourning his passing.
AHRQ mourns the loss of Deputy Director David Meyers, M.D., a family physician who for nearly 20 years helped lead AHRQ initiatives to ensure that Americans received the safest and most effective healthcare possible. https://t.co/J2iFBWTMvb
