Javed Siddiqi, MD, neurosurgeon and medical director for the Center for Surgical and Specialty Care at Redlands Community Hospital, will receive a Presidential Citation during the American Osteopathic Association's (AOA) 2014 Annual Business Meeting in Chicago this July. The Presidential Citation is bestowed annually upon three people personally chosen by each AOA President for outstanding accomplishments and contributions to the field of medicine. The prestigious citation places Dr. Siddiqi in a select group of medical professional leaders. Dr. Siddiqi is the founder of the largest neurosurgery residency program in California, and the only osteopathic neurosurgery training program West of Illinois. As a neurosurgeon, Dr. Siddiqi has been caring for patients in the Inland Empire since 1997. He is a diplomat of the American Board of Neurological Surgery, is board-certified in Neurological Surgery by the Royal College of Surgeons of Canada and a member of the North American Skull Base Society. Dr. Siddiqi founded and is the current president of the Arrowhead Neurosurgical Medical Group, the largest group of neurosurgeons and neurologists in California (outside a formal university setting and based at a public hospital), organized under one leadership, serving a catchment area of nearly 5 million population. He has served as a reviewer of several neurosurgery journals, including Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences and Practical Reviews in Neurosurgery, has been asked to be a visiting professor at medical universities in China, Japan and the United States, and has published more than 65 oral presentations, papers, book chapters and books. The AOA serves as the professional family for more than 104,000 osteopathic physicians (DOs) and osteopathic medical students. It promotes public health and encourages scientific research. In addition to serving as the primary certifying body for DOs, the AOA is the accrediting agency for all osteopathic medical schools and has federal authority to accredit hospitals and other health care facilities.
