Monument Health honors physicians in inaugural awards ceremony

RAPID CITY, S.D. (March 29, 2022) – Monument Health recognized seven Black Hills physicians at the inaugural Physicians and Providers Awards Banquet on Thursday, March 24. The event was created to celebrate and honor the hard work and dedication providers have shown their patients and the communities they serve, especially over the last two years.

Five award categories were created to highlight the different areas of the medical profession. The awards included; The Julie Raymond, M.D., Distinguished Clinician Award; The Distinguished Researcher Award; The Distinguished Educator Award, The Mark Harlow Distinguished Community Leader Award and the Dr. William E. Robinson/Dr. Frank Howe Legacy Award.

“Just days before our inaugural awards ceremony the Black Hills lost an incredible physician, friend and community leader, Dr. Julie Raymond,” said Brad Archer, M.D., Monument Health Chief Medical Officer. “It was important to our providers that we cherish her memory and honor her legacy by naming our distinguished clinician award after her.”

The awards were open to any medical provider in the Black Hills region who provides services at a Monument Health facility. Area providers nominated their peers and voted on the winners in each category. To learn more about the awards criteria and nominees, please click here.
