Amy Patel, MD, Chair of the American College of Radiology Association® Radiology Advocacy Network and RADPAC® is in the running for NFL Fan of the Year, and time is running out to vote for her.
At the start of the NFL season, Dr. Patel was chosen by the Kansas City Chiefs as their Fan of the Year, which automatically put her in the running for NFL Fan of the Year. Dr. Patel has been using her platform as an NFL Fan of the Year nominee to raise breast cancer awareness and the importance of early detection. While we can’t control the outcome of the Super Bowl, which will pit Dr. Patel’s beloved Chiefs against the Philadelphia Eagles, we can help her become NFL Fan of the Year.
Voting ends Feb. 8 and you can vote as many times as you want.
