Here are some examples from past winners to get you started:
Dr. Golchin is the type of person I look up to, despite incredibly high work demands, he is never irritated or short tempered when the ED calls him. One night he helped get his ill elderly neighbor to the emergency department. He came in to make sure the patient was settled, noted how busy it was, and bought everyone cookies. This is the type of person he is, cares greatly for everyone else.
We nominate innovative physicians for this award. After watching Dr. Golchin practice, he’s done more than innovate. He offers patients and physicians fearless service.
