Each spring since 2009, members of the Miller Coulson Academy of Clinical Excellence have come together to welcome a class of new members. This year, the restrictions surrounding COVID-19 prevented plans to gather as originally planned on March 27, at the 12th annual Excellence in Patient Care Symposium, sponsored by the Center for Innovative Medicine. “But that doesn’t diminish the extraordinary accomplishments of this talented class of new inductees,” says Scott Wright, director of the Miller Coulson Academy and holder of The Anne Gaines and G. Thomas Miller Professorship. “These are all doctors who are passionate about providing the very best in patient care, and it’s an honor to welcome them into the academy, which now numbers more than 80 strong.”
