The Allen Inspiring Children Lectureship

History and Accreditation

About the Lecture

One of Dr. David Allen’s favorite encouragements has always been to keep learning and growing from his patients. As pediatricians, we honor children when we remember, acknowledge, and keep close to our hearts the profound influences they’ve had on us, both as professionals and as people. The inaugural Allen Family Foundation Inspiring Children Lectureship welcomes new trainees to this journey and to motivate the rest of us to continue on it.
