INTERNIST WITH PASSION FOR HOLISTIC
HEALTH CARE JOINS PROVIDENCE HOOD RIVER’S
INTERNAL MEDICINE CLINIC
July 22, 2009
 HOOD RIVER, Ore. - Internist Jodi Ready, M.D., will join Providence Hood River’s Internal Medicine Clinic in August, bringing a holistic health care approach to her patients. “I’m interested in complementary medicine and believe all approaches to patient care should be considered where appropriate,” says Dr. Ready. “I also believe evidence-based medicine and preventive care are important aspects of health care.”
A graduate of Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Dr. Ready served her residency at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle, and is an advocate of education as a means of prevention. She recently served as the clinical chair of the Tobacco and Alcohol Prevention Team at Group Health Cooperative and participated on the Pharmacy and Therapeutics committee. She also sat on a Washington Department of Health work group making recommendations to the governor regarding altered standards of care in a pandemic.
“I love the beauty, outdoor opportunities and the Gorge communities,” Dr. Ready says when asked what brought her to Hood River. “I am also excited to join Providence, where I believe I can practice medicine in a well-supported organization that is poised to move into the future. It is a great fit.”
Dr. Ready joins three existing internal medicine specialists serving Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital patients - providing general medical care for adults.
She is certified in internal medicine and accepting new patients. To schedule an appointment, call Providence Hood River Internal Medicine Clinic at 541-387-6125.
