🏆ACP Ralph O. Claypool Sr. Memorial Award for the Devotion of a Career in Internal Medicine of the Care of Patients🏆
⭐R. Curtis Mills, MD⭐
www.nyacp.org/awards
Dr. R. Curtis Mills spent more than 50 years in medicine and was completely dedicated to the service of his patients before his recent retirement! After graduating from Albany Medical College, completing training at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, and serving the US Military in Alaska, Dr. Mills settled in Upstate New York to begin his Internal Medicine practice. Raised in Gloversville, NY, he returned to serve the people of the rural communities he knew and understood.
Board certifications in Internal Medicine, Hematology and Geriatrics, leadership as a medical director and assistant professor, and a member of nine professional organizations kept him connected to the clinical needs of his patients. Most recently, Dr. Mills led the home visits for the homebound program through Bassett Healthcare. This role, and his active involvement in community organizations, such as the YMCA and the Board of Education for the local school district, supported the outstanding way in which he understood and addressed the needs of his patients. Congratulations for an award well deserved!

🏆ACP Award for Outstanding Contributions to Improving Well-Being and Professional Fulfillment in Internal Medicine🏆
⭐Louis Snitkoff, MD, MACP⭐
www.nyacp.org/awards
Before burnout and well-being became the buzzwords, Dr. Louis Snitkoff was promoting the importance of self-care and caring for each other.
By example, Dr. Snitkoff lives his words of "paying it forward” through his ongoing work with NYACP, direct interaction with colleagues and previous collaboration with the DOH at the start of his retirement during the COVID 19 pandemic. He was in the inaugural class of ACP Well Being Champions and is a member of multiple ACP Committees and Task Forces (Physician Well Being and Professional Fulfillment, Medical Practice and Quality, and Coding Payment and Policy).
During his NYACP Presidency, Dr. Snitkoff founded the Chapter’s Well Being Task Force which has now become a standing committee and is a key contributor to the group’s award-winning well-being monthly programming. In retirement, he remains an active member of the Well-Being Committee, mentors new Well Being Champions and leads program workgroups. Dr. Snitkoff, a Master of the College, is a true role model for well-being!

🏆ACP Award for Distinguished Contributions to Behavioral Medicine🏆
⭐Kelly Ramsey, MD, FACP⭐
www.nyacp.org/awards
Even prior to a career in medicine, Dr. Kelly Ramsey has been dedicated to serving the underrepresented and underserved communities with a degree in International Politics and a master’s in public health. Since completing her formal medical training, she has served as a clinician, educator, and leader in the field of substance use disorders. In her work with NY ACP, Dr. Ramsey has held leadership positions, volunteered for the Chapter mentorship program, been a co-creator of an Opioid training program that has reached tens of thousands of physicians, and has worked to reduce the stigma and raise awareness of substance use disorders by leading multiple successful initiatives. Her numerous contributions and work in the field of behavioral medicine make her a trusted expert and mentor to her patients, colleagues, and the profession of medicine!

⭐Congratulations to New ACP Master, Dr. Parag Mehta⭐
www.nyacp.org/awards
Two words synonymous with Dr. Parag Mehta are happiness and gratitude. He personifies these values in his work as a leader, educator, mentor, and clinician. He is grateful for his experiences as a leader, and he has made a lasting impact in each of these roles.
Dr. Mehta is the current President of the Medical Society of the State of NY and the Immediate Past President of NYACP. As a lifelong learner, he has pursued education in many fields including Internal Medicine, Ob-Gyn, Hospital Medicine, Integrative Medicine, and Hospice and Palliative Care. That's a breadth of knowledge he brings to his patients as a practicing Internal Medicine Physician in Brooklyn and to future physicians as an Associate Professor at Cornell Medicine.
Dr. Mehta's endless energy and passion to volunteer his services extends to communities in need, both local and international. Most recently, his collaborative efforts included the collection of thousands of essential medical care items needed to provide healthcare services during the COCID-19 pandemic. Dr. Mehta is truly an inspiration to all that know him!
