Everyday Leaders

While the AMA is fortunate to have dedicated, outstanding groups of physicians in a variety of recognized leadership roles – such as its Board of Directors and Representative Forum – there are thousands more physicians working diligently throughout the province, investing long hours in rural and urban practices, clinics, hospitals and universities, providing Albertans with the best health care possible.

Awards, scholarships, bursaries and grants
The AMA recognizes the outstanding efforts and achievements of its member physicians, resident physicians and medical students with a wide range of awards, scholarships, bursaries and grants.

JPAC Shine On Gratitude Program
The JPAC Shine On Gratitude Program gives physicians the opportunity to say thanks to their colleagues for their acts of kindness.

Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medal 2023
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medal was bestowed on many amazing Albertans. Given the significant numbers and the importance of the honour, we are sharing a list here of the physicians who have received the award. We congratulate these outstanding colleagues and welcome additions to the list if you are aware of a physician on whom the medal will be bestowed.
