community through outstanding personal and professional achievement. This award recognizes servant leaders and role models for change.
Each year, an alumnus who challenges conventional approaches to social, clinical or personal issues in order to achieve excellence is recognized.
DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR AWARD
The Distinguished Professor designation is one of the highest academic honors at
The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth. It recognizes

President’s Alumni Award for Distinguished Service
WILLIAM R. BOONE JR., DO
Dr. William R. Boone Jr. graduated in 1983 from the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. He interned at Corpus Christi Medical Center before returning to the Pleasant Grove area of Dallas to work alongside his father, Dr. William Boone Sr., in his family medicine clinic. He enjoyed the full spectrum of life as a family physician, from delivering newborns to providing geriatric care.
After working with his father for 10 years, Dr. Boone began practicing in Rowlett, Sunnyvale and the surrounding areas. He was on the Texas Medical Board’s Physician Review Committee and was a family physician preceptor for both osteopathic and allopathic medical students each year.
Dr. Boone served as the chief of staff of Tri-City Hospital for three years and chaired the infection control committee while also working in the emergency room multiple days a week. Before entering medical school, Dr. Boone spent time in India volunteering at a leper colony at the foothills of the Himalayan mountains.
In total, Dr. Boone spent 36 years practicing medicine. He and his wife, Kyoko, recently established the Dr. William R. Boone Jr. and Kyoko Nakamizo Scholars Program for students in the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine at The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth.
This scholarship program will support TCOM students who are committed to careers in family medicine, possess a passion for the whole health model of care, and seek to integrate osteopathic principles into their practices. Recipients of the scholarships will be known as the Boone-Nakamizo Family Practice Scholars. The gift will impact future TCOM students over the next 10 years, with each scholarship totaling $5,000 a year for four years.
Distinguished Professor Award
FRANK FILIPETTO, DO, CPPS, FACOFP
Dr. Frank Filipetto joined The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine’s Department of Medical Education and Health Systems Science in October 2024. He holds a faculty appointment as an Everett Endowed Distinguished Professor.
Prior to joining the department, he served as the dean of TCOM. He was appointed to this position in February 2019 after serving as the interim dean for 18 months.
Under Dr. Filipetto’s leadership, TCOM earned a 10-year Accreditation with Exceptional Outcome, the highest level of accreditation given by the American Osteopathic Association’s Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation.
TCOM also rose in rankings released by U.S. News & World Report for best medical schools for primary care. In 2023, TCOM was the No. 1-ranked osteopathic school in the nation and No. 11 among all medical schools nationwide. TCOM also saw growth in its research funding, hitting $23 million in Fiscal Year 2024. In addition, the college integrated the nation’s first patient safety course into the health system science curriculum. This gives every graduate an international certification in patient safety.
In 2011, Dr. Filipetto was recruited to TCOM to serve as the chairman of the Department of Family Medicine. In 2014, he was appointed to serve as the college’s senior associate dean for academic affairs, overseeing the college’s curriculum. In this role, he chaired the curriculum committee as well as the Student Performance Committee.
Prior to joining TCOM, he was a full-time faculty member since 1993 at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey/ School of Osteopathic Medicine. While there, he served in several leadership roles, including family medicine residency director and vice chairman of the Department of Family Medicine. He was serving as acting chairman of the department when he was recruited to TCOM. In 2007, UMDNJ awarded him the Master Educator designation, its highest teaching award.
Dr. Filipetto earned his bachelor’s degree from Temple University, followed by his medical degree from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. He completed his family medicine residency at the University of Medicine and Dentistry/School of Osteopathic Medicine and is board-certified in family medicine by the AOA/AOBFP. He is a Certified Professional in Patient Safety and a fellow in the American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians. He holds full practice licensure by the Texas Medical Board. Dr. Filipetto has served as PI/CO-PI on numerous local, state and federal grants totaling more than $10 million.
In addition to maintaining active teaching assignments, he serves as an advisor within the Richards’ Advisory College. In 2024, he was elected as a TCOM faculty senator.

Oaths
THE PHARMACIST OATH
I PROMISE TO DEVOTE MYSELF to a lifetime of service to others through the profession of pharmacy. In fulfilling this vow:

I RECOGNIZE MY DUTY to perpetuate knowledge within the profession. These duties are pledged with sincerity and on my honor.
THE PHYSICAL THERAPY OATH
AS I ENTER THE PROFESSION to practice as a physical therapist, I solemnly and willingly pledge the following upon my honor:
I WILL accept full responsibility for the roles, obligations and actions of the physical therapist.
I WILL place the interests and needs of patients above my own. I WILL demonstrate respect, compassion and empathy for all individuals by advocating on their behalf.
I WILL consistently use current knowledge by embracing advancement, by challenging mediocrity, and by promoting high standards for practice, education and research.
I WILL engage in excellence of care by collaborating and communicating effectively with colleagues, with other professionals and, most importantly, with the patient.
I WILL steadfastly adhere to high ethical principles, professional standards, and all rules and regulations that govern the physical therapy profession.
I WILL provide physical therapy services with humility to benefit patients, serve the profession and positively influence society.
THUS, I accept the responsibilities that accompany the practice of physical therapy by freely binding myself to this oath.
THE PUBLIC HEALTH PROFESSIONAL’S OATH
AS A PUBLIC HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, I hold sacred my duty to protect and promote the health of the public. I believe that working for the public’s health is more than a job, it is a calling to public service. Success in this calling requires integrity, clarity of purpose and, above all, the trust of the public. Whenever threats to my profession arise, I will counter them with bold actions and clear statements of my professional ethical responsibilities.
AS A PUBLIC HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, guided by these principles, I declare the following:
I WILL work to ensure that all people have the chance to live full and productive lives, free from avoidable disease, injury and disability, and are supported in their pursuit of physical, mental and social well-being.
I WILL hold myself to the highest ethics, standards, values and responsibilities as I move forward the science and practice of public health.
I WILL work in partnership with communities and uphold the rights, values, beliefs and cultures of those individuals and populations with whom I work.
I WILL rely on evidence to support my decisions and actions, and translate that evidence into policies and programs that improve health for all.
I WILL add to the body of research and knowledge, and share my discoveries freely.
I WILL continuously seek new information and be open to ideas that can better protect and promote the health of populations.
I WILL advance health literacy for all.
WITH THIS OATH, I commit to the ideals and mission of public health.

based on logic, intellectual rigor, personal integrity and an uncompromising respect for truth;
I WILL perform my professional activities and interactions with scientific integrity and respect for the field and my peers;
I WILL acknowledge my role as an ambassador of science to the public, and strive to be honest, respectful and unbiased with engaging the public;
I WILL value my work and its contribution to the scientific community;
I WILL never let the potential for personal recognition or advancement cause me to act in a way that violates the public trust in science or in me as a scientist;
I WILL foster innovation, creativity and progress;
I WILL acknowledge and honor the contributions of scientists who have preceded me and become a worthy role model deserving of respect by those who follow me;
AND I WILL ALWAYS be cognizant that my work is for the advancement of knowledge and the benefit of all humanity.
BY PRONOUNCING THIS OATH, I declare my commitment to these professional standards and goals.
THE OSTEOPATHIC OATH
I DO HEREBY AFFIRM my loyalty to the profession I am about to enter.
I WILL be mindful of my great responsibility to preserve the health and the life of my patients, to retain their confidence and respect both as a physician and a friend who will guard their secrets with scrupulous honor and fidelity, to perform faithfully my professional duties, to employ only those recognized methods of treatment consistent with good judgment and with my skill and ability, keeping in mind always nature’s law and the body’s inherent capacity for recovery.
I WILL be ever vigilant in aiding the general welfare of the community, sustaining its laws and institutions, not engaging in those practices which will in any way bring shame or discredit upon myself or my profession. I will give no drugs for deadly purposes to any person, though it be asked of me.
I WILL endeavor to work in accord with my colleagues in a spirit of progressive cooperation and never by word or by act cast imputations upon them or on their rightful practices.
I WILL look with respect and esteem upon all those who have taught me my art. To my college I will be loyal and strive always for its best interests and for the interests of the students who will come after me. I will be ever alert to further the application
of basic biologic truth to the healing arts and to develop the principles of osteopathic medicine as taught by my profession.
IN THE PRESENCE of this gathering, I bind myself to this oath.
