Dr Hurst is most deserving of this honor.
I’m truly honored and thankful to @UABHeersink! Excellent patient care takes a team, and UAB has amazing primary care and subspecialty docs. I love clinical genetic medicine, so it’s humbling to be recognized among clinicians like the great @MJHeslin! 🧬#iamamedicalgeneticist
