Orlando Health's 2016 Physician Exemplars!
On April 8, twenty-eight physicians from across the organization were recognized as Physician Exemplars at the seventh annual Orlando Health Celebration of Physician Excellence awards, held at the UF Health Cancer Center at Orlando Health. A physician exemplar is one who has a collaborative approach to care, champions the mission of Orlando Health, is an inspiration to their patients, families and the healthcare team; and is an innovator and true role model. Congratulations to this year’s award winners!
