The American Medical Women’s Association (AMWA) recently announced the recipients of the 2023 INSPIRE awards, and among the honorees is Cardiovascular Division faculty and Director of Cardio-Obstetrics Dr. Amanda Verma.
The INSPIRE award celebrates accomplished women in medicine who exemplify the highest values in vision, integrity, service, and collaboration in medicine and healthcare.
“During Women in Medicine Month, AMWA highlights the positive impact of women in healthcare with the announcement of this year’s AMWA INSPIRE Awardees,” says Dr. Connie Newman, MD, a Past President of AMWA and founding member of the Leadership Council. The AMWA Leadership Council initiated the INSPIRE Awards for the first time in 2021 to honor women physicians who inspire others because of their dedication to health care, compassion for patients, leadership, advocacy, or community service. Recipients of the award are nominated by professional colleagues, supervisors, students, or collaborators.
