"In as much as ye have done it unto the least of these": a tribute to the Louisiana State Medical Society Alliance.
The following tribute was delivered to members of the Louisiana State Medical Society Alliance at their Annual Convocation and Leadership Conference in Monroe, Louisiana, April 9, 2003, by Lester W. Johnson MD. For the last 40 years, these spouses of Louisiana physicians have raised over 1.7 million dollars through the AMA Foundation for the support of Louisiana's medical schools. These funds have been utilized to support academic scholarships for worthy students and in addition to support tutorial services for students in need of academic support. Dr. Johnson accepted a contribution on behalf of the Alumni Foundation of LSU Medical School New Orleans. Contributions were also given to Tulane and LSU Shreveport Medical Schools. The Alliance has set an example for all who are dedicated to the health of Louisiana.
