Dr. Zalud mentioned the dedicated faculty MDs who work in his department at the University of Hawai\u2019i John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM), and other physicians who, like him, were being honored for their service to Hawai\u2019i.<\/p><p>Dr. Zalud ended his talk with a phrase adopted by his department, using the words of Queen Kapi\u2018olani: \u201cKulia Ika Nu\u2018u\u201d (Strive for the highest).\u201d Queen Kap\u02bbiolani founded what is now the Kapi\u02bbolani Medical Center for Women and Children in 1890. The JABSOM OB-GYN administrative offices are located there, and in cooperation with Kap\u02bbiolani Medical Center, the department trains future OB-GYN physicians on its grounds.<\/p><p><strong>About the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Women\u2019s Health<\/strong><br \/>JABSOM faculty in OB-GYN serve families statewide. They are involved in about one-third of the annual births in the Islands, especially those involving critical care needs or children born into underprivileged families. In addition to regularly providing care for mothers and women at Kap\u02bbiolani, the department also serves underserved families in Wai\u2018anae, Kalihi-Palama, Waimanalo, Lana\u2018i and Hilo. OB-GYN faculty treat patients on Kaua\u2018i and Maui, too, and they represent the only clinical practice with whole spectrum of integrated clinical care in women\u2019s health<br \/>(general OB\/GYN, maternal-fetal medicine, gynecologic oncology, urogynecology, reproductive endocrinology and infertility, family planning, critical care, addiction medicine and imaging). OB-GYN also has various safety and quality initiatives with other Hawai\u2018i Pacific Health medical centers and The Queen\u2019s Medical Center.<\/p><p>In 2016, Dr. Zalud was the first physician in Hawai\u02bbi elected to become a fellow of the American Gynecologic and Obstetrical Society (AGOS).<\/p><p>See more photos from the HMA gala <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/uhmed\/sets\/72157661561690848\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-359a365b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"359a365b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-42810728\" data-id=\"42810728\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f7f7bd elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"8f7f7bd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/news-all\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">&lt;&lt;   &nbsp;Return To News<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October 18, 2017 &#8212; Dr. Ivica Zalud, chair of UHP OB\/GYN, was named &#8220;Physician of the Year&#8221; by Hawaii Medical Association at its annual Medical Gala. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21740,"featured_media":2017,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_header_footer","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[40],"class_list":["post-2016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-department-of-ob-gyn"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/uhphawaii.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_2251-copy.jpg?fit=640%2C417&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2016","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21740"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2016"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2016\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12866,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2016\/revisions\/12866"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2017"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2016"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2016"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uhphawaii.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2016"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
