A host of frontline NHS staff are among those recognised in the New Year Honour's list.
Among them are London-based GP Dr Sam Everington who has been given a knighthood after more than 20 years service in east London.
Meanwhile, Eileen Sills, the chief nurse at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, has been made a dame.
Nearly one in 14 of the honours awarded went to people working in the field, including eight nurses made MBEs.
Other notable recipients include knighthoods for Royal College of Surgeons of England president Prof Norman Williams, Andrew Morris, chief executive of Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, and Nilesh Samani, professor of cardiology at the University of Leicester.
