Violet Zuvela Primary Care IM Scholarship Awards

Congratulations to this year’s recipients of the Violet Zuvela Primary Care IM Scholarship Awards, Sarah Lawrence and Astrid Strasik.

The Violet Zuvela Primary Care IM Scholarship award was created in 2017 by the generosity of the late Violet Zuvela, who was a patient of Dr. Douglas Paauw, director of Medicine Student Programs (MSP).

The Zuvela Fund serves as a deeply meaningful tribute to Violet, while at the same time, provides a scholarship in the amount of $1000 for students with a career interest in primary care internal medicine whose work exemplifies the value of patient-centered care.
