A local physician has received recognition for her work. Dr. Monica Grafals, an internal medicine physician, was recently honored. She had previously worked in Denver and helped a patient through a significant medical procedure.

This patient, who has since passed away, had returned to Eagle County after the procedure. He was able to continue seeing Dr. Grafals after she took a new position in the area.

Further details about Dr. Grafals and her award are available from the Vail Daily. She was named the recipient of a local award in late June, but additional information is not provided here.
