Top Docs of Central Oregon

Central Oregon has no shortage of impressive people in any professional field, but this week we’re shining a spotlight on a handful of the “top docs” — or more accurately, “top medical professionals” — of our region.

These “top docs” are not just serving their community in their practices, but also, going above and beyond in the wider community.

When we set out to find local medical professionals who spend time outside of their office donating time and expertise, the list was quite long. You’ll meet Dr. Adam Angeles, a plastic surgeon who volunteers his spare time flying to eastern Oregon as a medi-vac; Amy Snow, a dermatologist who offers free services to low-income teens; Linda Hatch, a family nurse practitioner who donates weekends rescuing injured skiers; Sondra Marshall, a psychologist providing care for youths and other athletes with special needs and Dr. Mark Goodman, who specializes in sports medicine and donates his time to aide bicyclists injured during race events.

These impressive people are only a drop in the bucket when it comes to local health care workers, all who bring an abundance of compassion and make Central Oregon a beacon of humanity, hope and healing.
