RECOGNIZING THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF DR. STUART WEINSTEIN
(Mrs. MILLER-MEEKS asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Mrs. MILLER-MEEKS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the
achievements of an exceptional healthcare
[[Page H5645]]
professional in my district. Recently, Dr. Stuart Weinstein, the
Ignacio V. Ponseti chair and professor of orthopaedic surgery and
professor of pediatrics at the University of Iowa, was awarded the
Lifetime Achievement Award from the Scoliosis Research Society for his
incredible work studying pediatric spinal deformity.
Since joining the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University
of Iowa in 1976, Stu has worked to make our community and the whole
world a better place.
Stu has published over 250 scientific articles in some of the most
well-known and prestigious peer-reviewed journals. His research has
focused on spinal deformity in children and the natural history and
long-term outcome of pediatric musculoskeletal disorders.
Listing and discussing all of Stu's accomplishments would take much
longer than one minute, so I will close by saying how grateful I am to
have people like Stu living in Iowa's Second District. I also tell
anyone I meet that Iowa is the best place to live, work, and raise a
family. With outstanding citizens like Stu, we will continue to hold
that title.
Mr. Speaker, I would also like to extend my enthusiasm with a happy
birthday to our colleague from California, the Honorable Young Kim.
Happy birthday to Young.
