Dear Fellow NYACP Members,
Before the prior authorizations, before the inbox, and before the metrics; there were patients. They are why we became doctors. They are what grounds us, what roots us in our studies and inspires us to work harder. Our contract with society, to care for the sick with great skill and scientific knowledge, is what makes us specialists in internal medicine. That contract is renewed with each patient.

Congratulations to the Recipients of the 2026 NYACP Chapter Excellence Awards!
Each year, NYACP proudly recognizes members for their excellence and distinguished contributions to Internal Medicine. This year, the Chapter Awards Committee has selected and will honor eight (8) recipients in the following categories: Education, Advocacy, Humanism in Medicine, Mentorship and a special Lifetime Education Award!
