In honor of Doctors’ Day, celebrated on March 30, The Huddle gathered thank you's, kudos and notes of gratitude from UW Medicine patients and community members. Dr. Kendra Bergstrom was given a heartfelt shoutout on social media by a patient in her clinic.
“My two favorite UW Medicine doctors help me navigate a fairly newly discovered genetic mutation – I adore Dr Wendy Raskind in Clinical Genetics (she knows everything, she’s kind & she’s a great communicator). Dr Kendra Bergstrom is in the Dermatology Clinic and specializes in exactly what I need – she’s brilliant, she’s thorough, and she is incredibly compassionate and warm. I’m lucky and so grateful to have great docs – but I’m also SO grateful for UWMC and the way my case is managed.”
