description

Dr. Burton Reifler is shown here in this undated photograph. He was appointed chair of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine in 1987. In 1988, Reifler was named director of the Dementia Care and Respite Services Program, a national, grant-funded program developed by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The Foundation also funded a seven-year health care support program, Faith in Action, in 2001 in which Dr. Reifler was named director. Faith in Action provides grants of $35,000 to local and national interfaith organizations. Before the Faith in Action headquarters moved to Winston-Salem in 2001, it provided funds to start Winston-Salem’s Shepherd Center. Reifler remains on the faculty of Wake Forest University School of Medicine as the director of the Geriatric Psychiatry Outreach Program in 2008.
