In this episode I speak with Dr. Terry Rogers. Dr Rogers is a graduate of Dartmouth College (1961), and Cornell University Medical College (1966). He completed his training in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary Diseases and Critical Care Medicine at the University of Washington. He is Board Certified in these specialties, and also holds a Certificate in Biomedical Ethics. After 15 years of practice in Seattle, during which time he was the Director of Respiratory and Critical Care at the Swedish Hospital Medical Center, he joined King County Medical Blue Shield (now Regence Blue Shield), first as Senior Medical Officer, then as Chief Operating Officer. He has retired as Medical Director of Lakeside-Milam Recovery Centers, and was previously Chief Executive Officer of the Foundation for Healthcare Quality in Seattle. Dr Rogers was also a Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington. He still works part time seeing patients at the recovery center. Other activities include portrait photography, playing the saxophone in a traditional jazz band, walking his dog Jenny, rebuilding his old MG and being a pest to his lovely wife Karin.
