Doctors’ Hall of Fame

An event to honor physicians who have contributed to the improvement of healthcare in Hattiesburg, and to the growth and excellence of Forrest General Hospital. Any physician serving Forrest General who meets the specified criteria, whether they are still practicing, retired, or deceased, may be nominated for this award. Nominees must have 10 years of service on Forrest General’s medical staff, and be highly involved, not only at Forrest General, but in the community, medical societies and academia, and be considered a leader in their specialty. Inductees are chosen by a nomination sub-committee made up of members of Forrest General’s medical staff, administration and Foundation, as well as community members and retired physicians.
