Join us Sept. 8 for the next session in our Wellness Webinar Series with Joe Sherman, MD, focusing on the science and power of self-compassion as a foundation for sustainable care. All practitioners are welcome (and registration is free!) https://bit.ly/3UIEjGQ

🚗 WSMA physician and executive leadership have been hitting the road, networking with our county medical society colleagues at their local events and presenting on our shared advocacy priorities on behalf of the physician community.

The first WSMA Road Trip was Tue, Aug. 19, with the Northwest Washington Medical Society at its Trackside event in Bellingham. It was a pleasure to meet and mingle with physician leaders from San Juan and Whatcom counties and to hear about their challenges and hopes for the upcoming year!
