of the year/Physician Emeritus
Members Urged to Nominate Colleagues
Do you have a colleague
that inspires you, one who you feel is the "best of the best"?
If so, please consider nominating him or her for TAFP Physician of
the Year award.
The Physician Emeritus award is
our way of honoring a physician who has contributed long and
meritorious service to family practice.
These two awards allow
TAFP to honor wonderful physicians and showcase them to the community
as the epitome of a Family Physician. Click on the links below
