LOUIS and HINTON, West Virginia, June 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PracticeLink, the nation's most trusted physician recruitment resource and home of the leading online physician job board, is proud to announce the recipients of its inaugural First Practice Fund, a biannual scholarship program designed to provide financial support to future healthcare leaders.

After careful evaluation, six extraordinary individuals have been selected to receive a $2,500 scholarship, one from each of the program's six focus categories, which included Internal Medicine, Hospital-based Medicine, Primary Care, Rural Medicine, Medical Students and Advanced Practice Providers. Spring 2025 First Practice Fund Recipients: Bryan Bui, DO Alejandro Nieto Dominguez, MD Sarah Eichinger, DO Margaret Giggey Dilpreet Singh, MD Jill Wenger, PA Among the recipients is Dr. Sarah Eichinger, who chose to divide her residency training between two hospitals to better serve underserved communities and Jill Wenger, PA, who left behind a successful career as a massage therapist to pursue her calling in neurodegenerative care, driven by a desire to better support patients living with these challenging conditions. Recipients also include Dr. Bryan Bui, whose commitment to diversity and equity has been a cornerstone of his medical training.
