About the Academy

Created in 2004, the Physicians’ Academy was established as a means of harnessing the energy and excellence of the CDPHP physician network to shape and improve the future of health care in our service area.  The Academy recognizes physicians who serve as role models to their medical colleagues and who act as ambassadors in fostering the delivery of high value health care.  Honorees are nominated by their peers and selected by an esteemed panel of judges.
