Dear ACP Leadership,
Although we all hear about the value of membership, I want to share how truly invaluable my association with our esteemed organization was recently.
Long story short. My office manager had attempted to submit all necessary materials for my Florida Medical License for over six months. She dealt with multiple employees, multiple credentialing agencies, and multiple roadblocks from December 2022 until mid June 2023. On Friday June 16th she called the Florida chapter of the ACP and spoke with the incredibly professional and efficient Executive Director, Dawn Moerings. Dawn suggested an email be sent to her office and she would guide the next steps.
By EOD on a Friday of three day holiday weekend, Dawn had identified people at the highest state level and provided their contact information. On Tuesday morning my office manager reached out to the appropriate personnel as directed, and in less than 24 hours, received a return email from the Executive Director of the Florida Board of Medicine/Florida Department of Health, along with confirmation of my Florida medical license.
As a former President of the Manhattan chapter and a longtime member, I can unequivocally state that my association with, and membership in, the ACP was priceless.
Sincerely, Louis J Morledge MD
