Domestic Surgical Volunteerism Award

The Domestic ACS/Pfizer Surgical Volunteerism Award is given in recognition of those surgeons who are committed to giving back to society by making significant contributions to surgical care through organized volunteer activities in the US and Canada. The award is intended for ACS Fellows and members in active surgical practice whose volunteerism activities go above and beyond the usual professional commitments, or retired Fellows who have been involved in volunteerism during their active practice and into retirement. Surgeons of all specialties are eligible for this award.
