Congratulations to Beaumont neurosurgeon Mark Kubala, MD, the former TMA president and speaker of the TMA House of Delegates. The AMA Board of Trustees nominated Dr. Kubala for the 2012 AMA Distinguished Service Award, saying he “has been an indefatigable advocate for practicing physicians on such issues as professional liability reform and head and spine injury prevention.” I wholeheartedly agree with the board that “Dr. Kubala is well qualified to receive this year’s award for meritorious service in the art and science of medicine.”
