We always hoped there would be an opportunity to move back to Seattle to be closer to family. Read full post »

The Pacific Northwest Undiagnosed Diseases Network (PNW UDN) is currently open for applications for pediatric patients with medical conditions that have thus far eluded diagnosis.

Phlebotomy hours have changed at our regional clinics in Bellevue, Everett and Federal Way. Blood draws are now offered Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., closed evenings and weekends.
A new informational handout is available for referring providers to let them know how Seattle Children’s is helping patients access their telehealth appointments. It answers frequently asked questions about privacy, cost, cancellation, setting up a MyChart account (needed for a telehealth visit), preparing for the appointment and troubleshooting technical issues.
The telehealth handout is intended for providers and available in English only. A telehealth handout for patients and families is being prepared and will be available in multiple languages. We will share it with community providers when it is ready.

Dr. Gina Sequeira, co-director of the Gender Clinic at Seattle Children’s and the study’s lead author, says the study affirms telemedicine as a way to reduce the barriers to care these families typically experience, such as finding a local pediatric provider who offers gender-affirming care or the expense of trips to Seattle Children’s from distant locations.
