2011 Exemplary Psychiatrist Award Winners
NAMI’s 21st Annual Exemplary Psychiatrist Awards honors 15 doctors this year. The awards have special significance because honorees are nominated by individuals and families whose lives are directly affected by mental illness.
NAMI’s "Exemplary Psychiatrists Awards" honor psychiatrists who have "gone the extra mile" in their commitment to excellent care, reducing the stigma surrounding mental illness and working closely with NAMI members in their communities on public education and advocacy.
