PAMED Awards

PAMED Everyday Hero

Sometimes our physicians are the unsung heroes of our communities, tirelessly working to improve lives and inspire hope. They don’t just heal; they uplift, support, and lead with unwavering dedication. All too often, they go unrecognized. PAMED is dedicated to acknowledging and celebrating our Everyday Hero physicians.

We’re looking for PAMED members who make extraordinary contributions through their daily actions. Their commitment, compassion, and resilience are the cornerstones of exceptional care and community well-being.

Everyday Hero Award nominations are accepted throughout the year.
