Congratulations to Dr. Ronald Scott on his retirement from UW Pediatrics. A heartwarming celebration of Dr. Scott’s career took place in Vista Café on June 22nd. Surrounded by his family, colleagues, patients, and friends, Dr. Scott was thanked countless times for saving many children's lives.
"My child was diagnosed with a rare, life-threatening metabolic disorder," shared Susan alongside her daughter Indie. "In that first appointment [Dr. Scott] said Indie is perfect, and we are going to keep her that way. Those were, and still are, some of the most comforting words we have ever heard."
