			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Congratulations to Dr. Siegel</strong> who was presented the  Christina Manthos Mentoring Award at the Society of Women in Urology  meeting in March by some of his former and present fellowship  participants. <a href="http://intranet.metro-urology.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Siegel-Fellows.jpg" target="_blank">Click here for picture</a><br />
<a href="http://intranet.metro-urology.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Manthos-Nominating-Letters.pdf" target="_blank">Click to read nominating letters from his fellows</a></p>
<p>A Brief History of the Award:</p>
<p>Christina Manthos was an extraordinary young urologist whose life and  career were sadly curtailed by breast cancer. As a means of  perpetuating the flame of her inspiration and honoring her memory, SWIU  established an annual award to recognize those men or women who  demonstrate extraordinary mentoring skills in supporting the career of a  female urologist. SWIU believes that a mentor is an important element  in the life of each professional woman and wants to encourage and reward  those who set a good example.</p>
<p>Christina Lean Manthos earned her medical degree from USUHS in 1990,  receiving the Army Surgeon General&#8217;s Award and the Janet M. Glasgow  award from the American Medical Women&#8217;s Association. After a Surgical  internship at Fitzsimmons AMC, where she won Outstanding Intern of the  Year, she was sent to Korea to serve as clinic commander. Subsequently,  she returned to Fitzsimmons AMC, where she completed her urology  residency in 1996. She then served with distinction as the assistant  chief of the urology service at the USAF Academy and Fort Carson until  she lost her battle with breast cancer in 1999. Christina will be fondly  remembered as a gifted urologic surgeon, dedicated officer and  inspiring mentor.</p>
<p>Metro Urology thanks Dr. Siegel for his years of mentoring.</p>
