The past awards received by Vicki Truitt brought it great respect and reputation. These are the awards that helped Vicki Truitt to go some extra miles in its objectives. The awards include, "Texas Medicine's Best" by TEXPAC, the politically active branch of Texas Medical Association, 2003 Texas Advocacy Award from the American Cancer Society, Texas Division and “Texas Hospital Advocacy Tribute” award in 2003. These are awards that were the paving stones for having a better understanding of ones skill. According to David Disiere, one of the organizers of “Texas Hospital Advocacy Tribute” award in 2003, ‘the idea behind offering this award to Vicki Truitt, is just to make its contemporary organisations realize that to reach excellence they must consider Vicki Truitt, as their ideal.’ She is more famous with the description of “having a calm demeanor, yet bulldog determination." In fact, she got more popular with nickname of "Bulldog" during her first term in office, where her colleagues called her with the same name.

For her the greatest honor would be to represent the people of the area where she grew up and to assist them to achieve a developed life. Rep. Truitt can be quoted as, "I care deeply about Northeast Tarrant County, and the people who live here. In the Texas House, we are 150 ordinary people who have the great privilege to serve in an extraordinary place. It is my passion to serve my constituents in an extraordinary manner, and to always keep in focus the people I represent. It is to them I owe my allegiance."
