Emily Prendergast, MD, (second from left), receives the SGO 2019 Congressional Ambassador Award
The Congressional Ambassador Award recognizes SGO members who have worked hard to educate our elected and appointed officials in Washington, DC, to promote health care policy changes and annual federal funding increases to positively impact the field of gynecologic oncology and the women who are impacted with gynecologic cancer malignancies. Dr. Prendergast was one of two physicians to receive the award.
Dr. Prendergast, who sees patients at our Minneapolis Clinic, has been active in the SGO Congressional Ambassador Program by contacting members of Congress to educate them on the need to support Federal funding for gynecologic cancer research.
