Mestan Appointed NYCC Interim EVPAA

With the departure of Dr. Clay McDonald, Dr Michael Mestan has been named New York Chiropractic College’s Interim Executive Vice President of Academic Affairs. McDonald now serves as Palmer College of Chiropractic’s new Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer. Mestan arrived in upstate New York in 2002 having previously worked at Parker Chiropractic College chairing the college’s Department of Radiology and directing its Diagnostic Imaging Residency program. Bearing impressive credentials, Mestan came with a Bachelor Degree in Human Anatomy and has earned Diplomate status with the American Chiropractic Board of Radiology and eight years administrative experience. Dr. Mestan says of his work at NYCC, “It is exciting to be able to work at a College with such a rich history as NYCC and serve as part of an administration that provides such a clear and progressive vision.” A national search is being conducted for the Dean of Chiropractic position to oversee academic planning, curriculum development, faculty hiring and associated budgets as they relate to the chiropractic program.
