It is our pleasure to announce the winners of the Resident MVP award for the first quarter of the academic year. Thank you to all the faculty who sent in nominations. It says a lot about our trainees that so many were suggested by their faculty for this award.


Dr. Samip Patel
CA3 class

Dr. Chris Riis
CA2 class

Dr. Darby Moore
CA1 class


The award was established by generous gifts from appreciative ACCM attendings to recognize one resident in each class per quarter who goes above and beyond in their efforts to care for patients and to help support their colleagues. Thanks to the generous support of our faculty, the award comes with an honorarium for each resident.

The winners of this quarter’s MVP award are individuals who work incredibly hard, are always willing to stay late to help a colleague or volunteer to be there for anyone who needs it. They have volunteered their time outside of work to improve the program and always have positive can-do attitudes that lift the spirits of those around them.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Samip Patel in the CA3 class, Dr. Chris Riis in the CA2 class, and Dr. Darby Moore in the CA1 class.
