“Paws Up” for Dr. David Moses – brought to you by the PVM Wellness Committee

Today we recognize Dr. David Moses, who is a resident in Cardiology. A faculty member nominated him stating, “He is always very patient and considerate during consultations, and he’s done an excellent job explaining his approach and management of these cases. He’s made a really positive impression on the interns so far and the hard work he’s putting in is not going unnoticed by them.”

Fostering a healthy work environment involves expressing appreciation and gratitude. Is there someone at PVM you would like to acknowledge today? It’s easy to make a Paws Up submission – just follow this link. Submissions are published anonymously and may be edited for length. Any PVM staff, faculty, student, or team may be nominated by anyone in our college. For more information, visit the PVM Wellness Committee website.
