On National Doctors’ Day, March 30, 2026, the Pennsylvania Medical Society presented a Certificate of Recognition to Mohamed Hassan, MD, a neonatologist with the Penn Highlands DuBois Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), in honor of his outstanding dedication to patient care.

In accepting the award, Dr. Hassan showed the humility for which he is known for throughout the hospital and the community.

Penn Highlands DuBois offers a 16-bed NICU which is the only NICU in the region – the nearest one is 100 miles away.
