Every year, the Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare recognizes one Boston-area health care provider for the extraordinary care they provide and the connections they build with their patients. This year’s winner is John Zawacki, a professor of medicine at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and a gastroenterologist at UMass Memorial, who specializes in treating patients with Crohn’s, colitis, and inflammatory bowel disease.

Dr. Zawacki sounds like a very deserving physician for the compassionate care award. I hope the students that he mentors follow in his footsteps, just as he followed in his father's footsteps. He sounds like a much respected professor and beloved among his patients; a rare and special person.
