2020 ACP-WI Addis Costello Internist of the Year Award: Ian H. Gilson, MD, FACP
The Addis Costello Award is given by the ACP Wisconsin Chapter in memory of Dr. Costello, a Milwaukee physician leader who worked tirelessly on socioeconomic concerns affecting the practice of Internal Medicine. This award honors a practicing internist for his or her diligent efforts or achievements in the socioeconomic aspects of medical practice. Dr. Gilson has devoted his entire career to caring for underserved populations in Wisconsin and around the world. He entered clinical practice just as HIV/AIDS was becoming a national and international health crisis and was among the first HIV/AIDS specialists in our state. Throughout his career, Dr. Gilson has held various leadership roles in professional organizations that permitted him to influence health policy at local, regional and national levels. His work has also expanded to the care of other marginalized populations including those with substance abuse disorders and opioid dependence.
