A recent Doctors’ Day celebration gave CHOC a formal occasion to recognize the hard work and dedication of its physicians.
Held April 8, the special luncheon themed “CHOC Docs Lift Us Up” included remarks from CHOC President and CEO Kim Cripe, who lauded the physicians for their commitment to CHOC’s mission and the families it serves.
Medical staff leadership received special recognition, as did several physicians who recently retired: Dr. Klane Hales, anesthesiology; Dr. Gary Jenkins, pediatrics; Dr. Eugene Litwer, pediatrics; and Dr. Daniel Weissberg, radiology.
The event also included a special recognition for physicians who recently passed away: Dr. Leonard F. Kellogg, pediatrics; Dr. Jeffry Katz, anesthesiology; Dr. Joe Corless, pediatrics; and Dr. Sherwin Gillman, allergy and immunology.
