The former president of the American Academy of Family Physicians and former director of Family Medicine Residency Training at Naval Hospital (NH) Pensacola, addressed the 2009 graduating residents at the National Museum of Naval Aviation June 26.
A recent study by the DoD has shown that Naval Hospital Pensacola was rated the third highest amongst 46 DoD Military Treatment Facilities, and first for the Navy, that participated in a patient satisfaction study in regards to childbirths.
This year marks the third year in a row that Naval Hospital Pensacola has received a Department of Defense Patient Safety Award. An accomplishment that has not been achieved by any other Military Treatment Facility in the DoD since the award's inception in 2003.
