Kansas College of Osteopathic Medicine
05/13/2026
It took many partners to build our university, but one pivotal vision helped turn the ending of one chapter—the closure of Wichita’s Riverside Health System—into the bedrock of our college of osteopathic medicine.
During our first commencement, we recognized Robert Dixon, former president and CEO of Riverside Health System and founder of the Riverside Health Foundation, with the University’s highest honor, the Lifetime Achievement Award.
As Wichita’s osteopathic hospital evolved under his leadership, Mr. Dixon expanded its reach, growing community clinics and strengthening access to care. When the system closed, he ensured its momentum did not end. Instead, he carried it forward through the Foundation to support medical students and ultimately help establish Kansas College of Osteopathic Medicine
Through the Riverside Health Foundation’s continued investment in education, training, and direct student support, Mr. Dixon’s vision remains a driving force. Every graduate we celebrate exists, in part, because of him. Please join us in honoring Robert Dixon and his enduring impact on health care in Kansas.
