The Louisiana Academy of Family Physicians congratulates Leticia Antunes, MD for completing the American Academy of Family Physicians’ Leading Physician Well-Being Certificate Program (LPW):

Dr. Antunes part of 120 physicians selected from a national pool to participate in the program, which was created to provide leadership development, training in physician well-being advocacy, and performance improvement project skill-building. During the program year, they developed a System Well-Being Improvement Project (SWIP) and presented this to their peers in a final Project Showcase.

AAFP LPW Scholars completing this program are well-positioned to fill leadership roles within healthcare systems where they can create value around physician well-being which honors the doctor-patient relationship. This leads to a more productive and engaged physician workforce and a better-served, and therefore healthier, patient population.
