HARTFORD - State Rep. Theresa Conroy, D-Seymour, was recognized recently by the Connecticut State Medical Society with its 2015 Legislative Recognition Award.

"We are grateful for your support during the 2015 legislative session as CSMS worked to stop attempts to worsen the medical liability climate in our state,” CSMS President Robert Russo, M.D. said. 

“Connecticut Physicians and their patients value your continued support for the practice of affordable quality medicine.”

“I am honored to be recognized by Connecticut’s physicians,” Conroy said. “Connecticut continues to make important steps to make sure all residents have access to quality health care.”

Conroy, an advanced practice nurse, was the chief proponent to expand access to life-saving anti-overdose drugs earlier this year.
