On Friday, Dr. Lonnie Robinson of Mountain Home was awarded the 2011 Fay Boozman Award by the Arkansas Physicians Resource Council—a division of Family Council.
The Fay Boozman Award is bestowed annually to an Arkansas doctor who exemplifies the strong Christian faith and commitment to community service and public health of Dr. Fay Boozman, an ophthalmologist and former director of the Arkansas Department of Health. Fay was suddenly taken from us as a result of an accident in 2005 at his farm, but through this award, we’ve tried to preserve his legacy.
Congratulations to Dr. Lonnie Robinson for being recognized as one of Arkansas’ outstanding Christian physicians!
