Awards

Presented By David Peters Vice President, Leon S. Peters Foundation

In December 2011, the Leon S. Peters Resident of the Year Award was established through funding from the Leon S. Peters Foundation in support of the first UCSF Fresno Resident Council. This year, the Resident Council has selected one resident and one fellow, nominated by their peers, who have demonstrated outstanding work in patient and family care, research project success, have volunteered in the community to provide medical assistance where needed, and are overall well-rounded physicians concerned about their patients, research, and community.

The Fresno Madera Medical Society is honored to present the Steven N. Parks, MD, Leadership Award.

Known for his vision, leadership, and guidance, during his 35 years of practice in Fresno, Dr. Parks made many outstanding contributions to the medical community, the profession, the Fresno Madera Medical Society and other professional organizations. His dedication and commitment to medicine continue through this leadership award, which was established by the medical society to recognize and encourage excellence in leadership development within organized medicine by residents and fellows and serves to stimulate similar efforts by other physicians in training.

The individual recipient, selected by the FMMS Board of Governors, is recognized during the UCSF Fresno commencement ceremony and is presented with a plaque and a monetary award.
