Joy Ping, M.D., clinical instructor, Pediatrics
Bringing
together the community in which she lives and works, Dr. Ping's knowledge
and dedication to her work and her outstanding community contributions
are truly exceptional. She makes time in her busy schedule to serve her
community in a variety of capacities, speaking at churches on preventing
drug use and early sexual activity in children. She assists in the training
of Head Start staff for the State of Michigan, giving lectures on attention
deficit disorder and respiratory problems in children.
n addition
to maintaining a thriving general pediatric practice, she has established
the Howell Pediatric Teen Clinic and serves as its Medical Director. This
is the first and only teen clinic in Livingston County. It has filled
such a profound need that the Howell Jaycees named Dr. Ping as Person
of the Year in 1999. In 2000, the Michigan Jaycees named her Outstanding
Young Michigander.
Dr. Ping is an outstanding
example of how a physician can be of service to the community.
