Jenifer has done an amazing job with our fellowship interview season process. She did an outstanding job in coordinating the interview process for our two largest programs and their complexity. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication with your first interview season. - Teena Wyatt

We would like to recognize Erick for his dedication to our patients. He recently assisted one of our participants who needed to be unexpectedly admitted for treatment (unrelated to study activities). Erick went above and beyond by staying with the patient, walking them over to the hospital, contacting the clinical team, and ensuring all was taken care of until late evening hours. He made the patient feel comfortable and well cared for. He’s a phenomenal asset to the department. - Alice Schultz

Thanks for all the work you do behind the scenes to make Duke Anesthesiology Grand Rounds lectures happen flawlessly every week. - Atilio Barbeito, MD

Dr. Bhowmik always goes above and beyond to help out! He is on his advanced OR rotation and was not even assigned to my OR, but made himself available to help. It started off with coordinating and performing popliteal/saphenous blocks for the first case in my room, followed by arranging all the necessary steps to do a thoracic epidural for my second case while I got tied up in the other OR. Thanks for being such a team player. - Mary Yurashevich, MD

On a particularly busy OR day, Dr. Dooley stepped in to help with several challenging procedures. Despite also being busy, he went above and beyond by making an intentional effort to teach both me and my pre-med student; he created a supportive learning environment and brought levity and positivity to the situation. He made the patient feel comfortable and well-cared for. Very grateful for the opportunity to work with him - he’s a phenomenal asset to the department. - Reade Tillman, MD

We had to figure out a full ICU week on short notice and multiple team members stepped in to fill shifts. Vijay worked nine days in row (!), Jamie did additional days even though we couldn't trade shifts, Rachael had to work night shifts after these additional ones, and Blair was just coming off ICU nights. All these team members went above and beyond to help out when we needed and they all deserve recognition for their hard work and dedication to our ICUs. - Nitin Mehdiratta, MD

For the second year in a row, the Pre-K students at Ravenscroft made a toy donation to Duke Child Life Services. As a service project in honor of MLK Day, the Pre-K students collect toys for hospitalized children. Our Child Life team is so grateful for the fantastic collection of toys and games to share with our patients. What a wonderful way to teach Pre-K students about community service, and a beautiful way to honor the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. - Andrea Udani, MD

Teena and Jenifer have done such an amazing job managing the Critical Care Medicine Fellowship. They have streamlined the interview process during application season and have gone above and beyond to support the faculty and fellows who are involved in recruitment. I want to acknowledge their hard work and the amazing energy that they bring to all of our fellowships. Thank you Teena and Jen for everything that you do. - Nazish Hashmi, MD

Carrie has been amazing supporting a multifaceted grant submission and being a strong team player. Thank you for the hard work, dedication, patience, and persistence to get this submission through the finish line. - Miriam Treggiari, MD, PhD, MPH

Big thanks to Jessica for coming in to help with many emergencies in the OR on L&D over the holiday! We truly appreciate all the team work in keeping these laboring ladies safe and cared for! - Kristal Barbee, CRNA
