Janna L. Chao, M.D.

"Excellent health is something we all want to achieve and the way to reach this goal is to use teamwork between patients, families, doctors, staff, Swedish, and the community at large. Doctors need to be respectful, listen carefully, and be compassionate. Patients also need us to make safety our first priority and to make treatment recommendations based on scientific evidence to be sure we give the best care possible. If we follow these ideals, our patients can fully trust us. I enjoy traveling with my family, walking my dog Charlie, reading mystery novels, and just getting outside in the Pacific Northwest."
