The Trauma/Critical Care Division is based at Harborview
Medical Center. The only Level 1 (regional) Trauma Center serving Washington,
Alaska, Montana, and Idaho, this clinical arm of Harborview - known
as the Northwest Regional Trauma Center - cares for emergency surgical
and trauma patients, and is closely linked to the Harborview Injury
Prevention and Research Center. Working closely with Plastic Surgery
division, Trauma / Critical Care provides highly skilled, emergency
and rehabilitative burn care for victims in the four-state region. By
cooperative agreement with Children's Hospital, Harborview is also the
region's only Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center.
The general surgeons listed below possess full-time appointments at Harborview, and expertise in trauma, burn, and surgical critical care. They lead a skilled team of surgical and medical specialists to provide the highest level of emergency surgical care in this four-state region (comprising one quarter of the nation's land mass).
Another part of our mission is to provide complete surgical care to underserved populations of Seattle and King County.
