Doerge pulled strings to obtain special surgery in [[St. Louis]], [[Missouri]], for a [[cerebral palsy]] patient, 5-year-old Jeremy Logan Curtis. Had she not acted, the child would have been a permanent invalid. The surgery was successful, and the child was thereafter able to walk and play and face a bright future.

Doerge's ''alma mater'', NSU, inducted her into the College of Business Hall of Distinction. Her name is engraved on a plaque located in the foyer of Russell Hall. The Louisiana Police Jury (equivalent of county commission in other states) Association presented her with its "Friends of the Parishes" award.

Late in 2004, she was declared cancer-free.<ref>''Minden Press-Herald,'' June 1, 2007.</ref>
