Academy of Emergency Medicine recognizes Dr. Goldman

The American Academy of Emergency Medicine has created a new award, named after the medical director of the Pediatric Emergency Department at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St.Vincent, recognizing him for his years of service as an oral board exam educator. The Mitchell Goldman, DO, Service Award for oral board examiners recognizes Dr. Goldman’s devotion and commitment to AAEM’s Oral Board Review Course and its educational programs.

Dr. Goldman has served as an oral board examiner since 1996. Once emergency physicians have completed their written board examinations, Dr. Goldman teaches them on preparation for the oral board exam. He also coordinates the administration of the oral exams, which are held in various locations around the country.

Luis Escobar, MD, medical director, Medical Genetics & Newborn Follow up, is the 2009 recipient of the Edwin L. Gresham Award from the Indiana Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
