The Community Pediatric Award
The Community Pediatric Award is the highest award granted annually to physicians in the greater Boston Children’s community. Traditionally, it honors pediatricians whose work takes place primarily outside the walls of Boston Children’s Hospital. Boston Children’s and the Pediatric Physicians' Organization at Boston Children's Hospital (PPOC) has expanded its presence both locally and throughout Massachusetts and surrounding states, meaning we have a rich and varied group of pediatricians, locally and farther afield, who are part of our diverse and robust hospital community. Those chosen recipients, nominated by their peers, embody the Boston Children's mission of exemplary patient care, compassionate treatment of all children, commitment to innovation, or excellence in teaching.
This year’s recipients are Donald DeLollis, MD, and Rita DeLollis, MD, of Medford Pediatrics; Rachel Heppen, MD, of Holliston Pediatrics; and David Salomon, MD, of HVMA Chelmsford. We congratulate and commend their service and care as doctors and individuals who tirelessly serve their community in an effort to bring better pediatric care to those in the greater Boston area and abroad. Learn about the recipients and their work.
The Susan Brooks Award
The Susan Brooks Award is given annually to a resident and a faculty or administrative staff member who has shown exemplary services to his or her patients, colleagues, and the Boston Combined Residency Program community, and is the utmost example of service leadership within the residency program, just as Susan was for so many years.
This year’s recipients are Jessica Angerman and Kieley Chapman, MD. We congratulate and commend their service! Learn about the recipients and their work.
