High praise for a local physician.
Dr. Jacqueline Wolting has been honoured with the prestigious Schulich Excellence in Distributed Education Award for her profound impact on medical education across the region.
Dr. Wolting works as a family physician at the Thamesview Family Health Team and also provides comprehensive obstetrical care at the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance.
“Dr. Wolting stands out as an exceptional educator whose leadership, teaching excellence, and unwavering commitment to learners exemplify the very spirit of this award,” said Dr. Lindsey Sutherland, Chatham-Kent Regional Academic Director, Distributed Education at the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry in a news release. “Dr. Wolting’s contributions to service and education have significantly strengthened the distributed education experience in Chatham-Kent and across our region.”
Wolting says teaching the next generation of physicians is a deeply rewarding extension of her daily practice.
“Welcoming medical learners into the Chatham-Kent community not only enriches their education but also strengthens local health care services as a whole,” Wolting said. “I am constantly inspired by the curiosity and dedication of my medical students and residents. I am also proud to work alongside many of them who have remained in Chatham-Kent after completing their training here.”
