OBG Management has been recognized by the ASHPE in years past as the Gold Winner for Best Website / Online Presence of a Publication; Best New Department, Best Commentary, Best Feature Article Series,  and was awarded Bronze for Best Legislative/ Government Article.

Upon receiving the award, Lila O’Connor, Editor, noted, “This is a great recognition of the efforts of OBG Management’s expert authors; editorial board; and journal editorial, art, and publishing staff—all of those involved in writing, creating, and producing the outstanding content found in print and online.” She continued, “The recent April 11, 2017 CNN coverage on Dr Kaunitz’s commentary on breast cancer screening/ overdiagnosis, from OBG Management’s March 2017 issue further illustrates the quality, credibility, and practicality we provide physicians in the care of their female patients.”

The Silver award-winning content from Cutis includes the Best New Department (print), Military Dermatology; and Best E-Newsletter, Aesthetic Dermatology Roundup (digital).

Melissa Sears, Group Editor, Cutis, was excited to receive the awards and commented, “The topics we cover in these well-received sections have broad appeal and we are thrilled to have both digital and print content be recognized. We are honored to work with the Association of Military Dermatologists to fill a knowledge gap not addressed by any other journal.”

About CUTIS®

Cutis is a monthly peer-reviewed journal referenced in Index Medicus/MEDLINE that provides concise clinical articles focusing on the practical side of dermatology. An educational resource for 52 years, dermatologists incorporate the diagnosis and treatment information presented in Cutis articles into patient care. Readers also become aware of new products and services through case reports, original research, quizzes (both clinical dermatology and dermatopathology), physician columns, and review articles. According to a recent survey,** 80% of respondents indicated that content from an indexed publication (Index Medicus/PubMed) is more credible than from a non-indexed publication. The Cutis website, www.mdedge.com/cutis, features an extensive archive of quality clinical content that provides readers with tools for point of care. Photo challenges are ranked most valuable by readers, followed by current issue contents. Other sources of original content online include disease state pages, latest news, multimedia, and physician blog entries. Online content for residents to aid dermatologists in-training include monthly resident columns, fast facts for board review with practice questions, and quizzes. Cutis is partners with the Association of Military Dermatologists (AMD) whereby Cutis is the official journal of the organization. A quarterly Military Dermatology column in the journal focuses on skin diseases that readers may see in their practices but an area in which AMD physicians have extensive expertise to share. **Source: Cutis Reader Input and Evaluation Study (August 2016)
