A Message from the Board

We learned at the April LIHD board meeting that, along with a number of other federally-funded institutions, state and federal funding impacts have resulted in UW Medicine facing unprecedented challenges. As the organization works through the large volume of necessary responses, action on things such as filling open positions is taking more time; this is true across the UW Medicine system, not just the UW Medicine Lopez Island Clinic. We’re awaiting additional information from UW Medicine, and we will share that with the community as soon as we receive it. We hope to hear more soon on when things can move forward at the UW Medicine Lopez Island Clinic.
