2005 Codman Award Winner
Minor & James Medical Neurologist and Stroke Program Medical Director William H. Likosky, M.D. was recently honored when Swedish Medical Center received the first-ever Ernest Amory Codman Award for disease-specific care.

We are among the elite programs in the country to have received this recognition, and we couldn’t be more proud.”
