At the Malibu Rotary Club meeting of April 15 Dr Richard introduced fellow ER doctor Lawrence Stock, MD, who lives in Malibu. Among other awards and accomplishment Dr Stock was awarded Volunteer Clinical Faculty Teacher of the Year, voted on by the resident doctors at Harbor UCLA Medical Center, a teaching hospital for the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Harbor UCLA Medical Center is a trauma center and one of Los Angeles County's Public Hospitals. It is easy to understand why he was given this honor when one learns about Larry's dedication to, as Rotary puts it, "Service Above Self." He not only saves lives in the emergency room, but he teaches others the skills he has learned.
