St. Tammany Quality Network (STQN) presented its 2018 fourth quarter Medical Director’s Award to Christopher Foret, MD, for his “exemplary patient care” in the management of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Foret has been a leader in population health for his community for the last 25 years.
“It is an honor to work with Dr. Foret,” said Michael K. Hill MD, STQN medical director. “He is a true patient advocate. He has challenged STQN to expand our population health efforts into rural communities.”
Foret graduated from Louisiana State University School of Medicine New Orleans in 1994 and completed a family practice residency at Palmetto Richland Memorial Hospital. He is the current president of the Louisiana Academy of Family Physicians and is a board member of the Patient Compensation Fund. Foret practices at St. Tammany Physicians Network in Folsom.
