From 1987 to 2003, Dennis Schrader was a member of the team that led the rags-to-riches transformation of a mediocre, nearly bankrupt hospital that almost lost its accreditation into a cornerstone of Baltimore's healthcare landscape.
Schrader joined the University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS) executive team shortly after the State Legislature privatized the dilapidated state-run facility. The mission was clear but daunting: revive the hospital and restore its former reputation.
Success was never certain. In fact, the probability of success was low. Yet, through passionate, visionary leadership, dedicated staff, and political and community support, UMMS emerged as a nationally recognized medical system that attracted top doctors, nurses, and healthcare specialists from across the country.
During this pivotal period, UMMS built the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center and the Gudelsky and Weinberg patient care towers and renovated the outdated 1934 and 1972 hospital buildings. As those state-of-the-art buildings rose, so did UMMS' reputation for world-class care.
UMMS gained statewide, national, and international acclaim for its trauma care, transplant program, cardiology, neurosurgery, rehabilitation, and cancer care. UMMS also pioneered breakthroughs in radiology and clinical laboratories and the operating room of the future.
The ripples of revitalization spread beyond medicine and the hospital walls. UMMS' transformation fueled economic growth, created jobs, and opened doors for minority-owned businesses in West Baltimore and beyond.
In 2025, UMMS is a nearly $5 billion system of twelve hospitals with more than 150 locations across the state. The UMMS network of academic, community, and specialty hospitals provides 25 percent of all hospital-based care in Maryland.
The Maryland Phoenix: The Team and Culture That Beat the Odds (1986-2003) tells the story through the lenses of the environment of care, organizational change, capital investment, operational excellence, teamwork, and culture. At its heart, it is a story of sacrifice, risk, and the pursuit of a vision that reshaped healthcare in Maryland.
Dennis Schrader hopes to honor the team whose efforts might otherwise fade with time.
