  Mr. CROW. Madam Speaker, it is my honor today to recognize the 
accomplishments of Dr. Monique Butler who will be honored by The 
Chamber of Northwest Douglas County as a ``Woman Who Soars.''
  Dr. Butler has been the Chief Medical Officer for Swedish Medical 
Center since 2018 and her career is an inspiration to all aspiring 
female doctors. A board-certified internist, Dr. Butler graduated from 
the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and received her medical 
training at Wayne State University School of Medicine.
  Dr. Butler also completed a Master of Business Administration from 
the University of Tennessee Physician Executive MBA program and holds a 
clinical assistant professorship at Michigan State University's College 
of Osteopathic Medicine.
  Prior to joining Swedish Medical Center, Dr. Butler came from the 
Children's Hospital of Michigan--Detroit Medical Center, where she was 
the Chief Operating Officer. Previously she held positions as the Chief 
Medical Officer at Detroit Receiving Hospital and Sinai-Grace Hospital.
  Dr. Butler was voted A Woman of Excellence in STEM careers in 
Michigan, was recognized as one of the Michigan Chronicle's 40 under 
40, and most recently was identified in Becker's Hospital Review as one 
of the 50 great African American leaders in healthcare to know in the 
nation. She is the co-founder of the Young Doctors of Detroit program 
and founder of The Women Physicians Network.
  A dedicated leader who brings an exceptional background, knowledge, 
expertise, and record of success to our community, there are few others 
deserving of such an honor. I congratulate Dr. Butler for receiving 
recognition as a ``Woman Who Soars.''
