Talk about making your mark on medicine. From a small town in Argentina where his parents were the only physicians, to the presidency of the American Surgical Association and his tenure as Chief Medical Officer at University of Washington Medicine, Carlos Pellegrini,MD's career has been nothing short of a tour de force.
In this special edition of Docs Talk, Dr. Pellegrini joins host Josh Kerns for an insightful, thought provoking, and at times humorous conversation spanning his decades as a leader and innovator in medicine.
Dr. Pellegrini recently retired from UW Medicine after serving as CMO for the past three years. Prior to that, he served as the chair of the UW Medicine surgery department for 23 years.
UW Medicine CEO Paul Ramsey, MD, said, "As department chair, Dr. Pellegrini was an exemplary role model for the UW Medicine Patients Are First approach to clinical care. He was a mentor to faculty, staff and students, and he focused on developing relationships to bring people together as the best way to advance the profession. His work to advance the Department of Surgery included helping to raise more than $30 million from patients and community supporters to create several chairs and professorships. In addition, with his wife, Kelly, he made significant personal donations to create a fellowship in surgical ethics, a fellowship in education, and the Carlos and Kelly Pellegrini fund for diversity."
"His impact as CMO has been equally significant," Ramsey added.
