The North Carolina Medical Society is accepting nominations for the E. Harvey Estes, Jr., MD, Physician Community Service Award.

This award is to provide recognition for the many and varied services rendered by physicians to their communities apart from their practice of medicine.

The recipient must be a physician licensed in North Carolina; must not have received the award previously; and must have compiled an outstanding record of community service, which, apart from his or her specific identification as a physician, reflects well on the medical profession.

The deadline for submissions is June 1st.
