MDA National's Vice President Receives RACGP Award
MDA National’s Vice President, Dr Beres Wenck, has been recognised by the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) with Honorary Fellowship of the College.
The RACGP is the professional body that focuses on the safety and quality of general practice and maintains standards for quality clinical practice, education, training and research. Each year the college recognises excellence in general practice with awards such as Honorary Fellowship.
The award of Honorary Fellowship is given in recognition of the years of service to general practice and to the RACGP, for service to medicine in the fields of education, research or administration and general service to the community.
Dr Wenck’s association with general practice and the RACGP is long standing. A General Practitioner in Queensland for over 30 years, Dr Wenck has been involved with RACGP in numerous capacities including her current position as Chair of the National Standing Committee for GP Advocacy and Support.
Dr Wenck is proud of her award that recognises her continuing commitment to general practice and the RACGP.
“As a GP keenly involved in health system reform, patient safety and quality and chronic disease management, I am honored and privileged to receive this award. Serendipitous opportunities such as Medical Director, Cardiac Rehabilitation Program and two coordinated care trials have been useful grounding for my role at the College”.
