He was awarded the Association for Surgical Education Education Award in 2003.[5] In 2003 he was made Endowed Chair of Surgical Education, a 5-year post that was renewed in 2009.[6] In 2006, Campbell and SF General Trauma were profiled in the San Francisco Chronicle article General, Life and Death at San Francisco's Hospital of Last Resort / For Trauma Team, Saving Lives is Both a Social and Medical Mission.[7] In 2011 Campbell was recognized by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors for his service as a trauma surgeon.[2] Throughout his career he has advocated for social justice. On Earth Day in 2017 he was part of a 'teach in' that called for more medics to be involved with policy work. He encouraged the audience to “advocate for your patients, advocate for issues you're passionate about, and advocate for institutions you believe in,”.[8]
