The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) announced March 3, 2008 that it recognized Joan Kolodzik, MD, FACEP, Director of Education/EMS at Premier Health Care Services, Inc., as a “Hero of Emergency Medicine.” The American College of Emergency Physicians launched the “Heroes of Emergency Medicine” campaign at the beginning of this year as part of its 40th anniversary celebration in 2008.

“I am honored to be recognized by my colleagues at Premier in this way,” says Joan Kolodzik, MD. “I am delighted to share the spotlight with many esteemed leaders in Emergency Medicine, many of whom have served as my mentors.”
Dr. Kolodzik is also an attending emergency physician at Upper Valley Medical Center in Troy, Ohio and assistant clinical professor in the department of Emergency Medicine at Wright State University School of Medicine. She is a past president of the Ohio Chapter of ACEP and is the chapter’s 2007 recipient for the Bill Hall Award for service to the chapter.
