I started working as a pediatrician at Skagit Valley Medical Center in Mount Vernon, WA.
There I worked with great people
In 2008 I became a pediatric hospitalist and began working at Evergreen Hospital in Kirkland and Providence Hospital in Everett. I worked with amazing people at these facilities as well.
Last December I became fulltime as a pediatric hospitalist at Skagit Valley Hospital in Mount Vernon again. Now I am working with several of the people I was with before 2008.
In these 20 years I have met amazing families and kids. I have dealt with incredible sadness as well as happiness. And despite my occasional grumblings I cannot imagine another “day job” for me. And twenty years has gone by very quickly.
Now back to farming!
Congrats on a long and satisfying career, Donna. I know you’ve made a difference in countless lives with your service. Twenty years does indeed go by quickly when we look back on it, doesn’t it?
Thanks Michelle! It does go by fast.
