Many congratulations to Professor Duncan Mackay Geddes. Consultant in Respiratory Medicine, Royal Brompton Hospital, London, for receiving a CBE, for services to medical research, charity and education. Prof Geddes is an outstanding physician in asthma. I am particularly pleased to see that Professor Margaret Ellen Hodson. Professor of Respiratory Medicine, Imperial College and Royal Brompton Hospital, London for services to Respiratory Medicine (London) has been awarded an OBE. She is the most brilliant physician, in cystic fibrosis, I have ever met. The Brompton is a truly superb centre in respiratory medicine, along with the National Heart and Lung Institute also in Chelsea.
