The AMA’s Women Physicians Section (WPS) is now accepting nominations for its annual Inspirational Physician Award.  Formerly the Physician Mentor Recognition Program, the Inspirational Physician Award recognizes physicians who have offered their time, wisdom and support throughout their professional journeys.

The individual may have inspired you to greater heights, steered you into a specialty you love, helped you find balance in life and work, guided you through your professional society, challenged you to surprise yourself, or unknowingly been a role model for you and others.

Inspirational Physician Award honorees will be issued a special certificate, celebrated during September (Women in Medicine Month), and recognized through various AMA communications and events.

• Nominations will be accepted through July 31, 2014. Late submissions will not be considered


• Individuals submitting nominations must be AMA members


• Please complete the nomination using the AMA WPS submission form.
