GHHS is a national society that celebrates compassionate, patient-centered care and recognizes a select group of students, residents and faculty who serve as role models, mentors and leaders in medicine while providing compassionate patient care. They are selected through a peer-nominated process.
“These students, residents and faculty serve as role models of humanism in healthcare,” said T.J. Hundley, M.D., associate dean for medical education and a chapter adviser. “They were identified for exemplifying the GHHS goal of placing compassion, dignity, empathy and human value at the heart of education and patient care.”
