50th Anniversary Acknowledgements
The UW Department of Family Medicine had hoped to celebrate 50 years in traditional ways: presentations, celebrations across the WWAMI region, and even a gala. The COVID-19 pandemic required a significant pivot, and while we would have preferred to gather in person, we are grateful for the hard work of so many people who made our virtual events so successful.
Thank you!
