Queen's Birthday Honour for Dr Sweet

LONG-SERVING general practitioner Micheil Sweet is the only Derwent Valley recipient of a Queen's Birthday Honour this year. Dr Sweet was today named as one of several Tasmanians who will receive the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM).

Dr Sweet has been a doctor at New Norfolk for 50 years and his Queen's Birthday Honour is in recognition of his service to medicine as a general practitioner, and to the community of the Derwent Valley. Dr Sweet has also been a successful sportsman, playing several seasons with the New Norfolk District Football Club and on several occasions winning the Queen's Prize as a sporting shooter.
