Congratulations to Dr. Anthony Martinez, ECMC’s Medical Director of Hepatology who was honored last week with the Coalition for Global Hepatitis Elimination’s 2024 Hepatitis Elimination Champion award. Dr. Martinez was one of eight Champions selected worldwide from seven countries. His clinic at ECMC, “La Bodega,” has been recognized nationally and globally as a novel co-localized model for managing viral hepatitis and addiction disorders. Since 2013, the clinic has treated thousands of individuals for hepatitis C (HCV) and substance use disorder. It has been recognized twice with the New York State World AIDS Day Commissioner’s Special Recognition Award. The Coalition for Global Hepatitis Elimination, a program of The Task Force for Global Health, is a nonprofit bringing together global partners to achieve worldwide elimination of viral hepatitis. This tremendous and well-deserved recognition for the achievements of Dr. Martinez and his colleagues!!!
