Dr. Stanley Galant, medical director of the CHOC Breathmobile has been recognized by the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) with the 2019 AAAAI Outstanding Volunteer Clinical Faculty Award.
This award is being presented to Dr. Galant for his outstanding contributions and diligent work in helping to advance knowledge in and treatment of allergic disease; specifically, in recognition of service to the University of California Irvine allergy/immunology training program as a teacher and mentor.
CHOC’s Breathmobile, the only mobile asthma clinic dedicated to serving preschool and school-aged children in Orange County, removes barriers for children and their families who may be unable to travel or pay for preventive asthma care.
Among Dr. Galant’s achievements, in 2017, he received the Robert M. Zweig, M.D., Memorial Award from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) for his longtime work to help children with asthma in the community.
Dr. Galant will be recognized at an awards luncheon held at the 2019 AAAAI Annual Meeting in San Francisco on February 23.
