A Feather in My Cap

Received this message via email today.  If you look on the last page of this PDF file (click on the link just below) and look in the box under "Reviewers"  you will see my acknowledgement for my effort as a reviewer.  ADA position Integration of MNT and Pharmacotherapy

"Hello Carol,

On behalf of the Association Positions Committee (APC), I would like to thank you and the MNPG DPG for all of the time and effort you put in assisting in the review of the ADA position Integration of MNT and Pharmacotherapy published in the June 2010 Journal of the American Dietetic Association. As experts in your area of practice, we realize that the practice group is frequently requested to share knowledge and expertise. We are especially grateful that you were willing to accept this additional responsibility for the Association and the dietetics practice group.


A thorough and careful review is critical to the position development process which results in an accurate, credible, and up-to-date position. For your information, if the comments you provided were not addressed in the published paper, the authors have provided a collective response (attached) to comments provided from all reviewers involved in the review process.


APC is proud of the final position and extend our congratulations and appreciation for your contribution to this position and the Association.

Sincerely
Donna L. Wickstrom, MS, RD
Manager, Governance"

I am elated...this is a real feather in my cap.  I have been published elsewhere, but not in my own professional journal.  Even through I was a reviewer to this position paper, I contributed and got mentioned.
