East Tennessee Children's Hospital Celebrates Doctors Day 2020
Doctors have dedicated years of their lives to helping others live healthy lives. At Children's Hospital, our doctors are passionate and proud about pediatrics.
In honor of Doctor's Day, we asked some of our physicians "What are you most proud of?" "What are you most passionate about?" and "Why did you choose pediatrics?" Here are some of their responses:
