About
Jeffrey Munson
I was lucky to have the freedom to pursue any career I wanted. I decided to use that opportunity to help others. My work as a doctor allows me to do that best. With support from a dedicated team and state-of-the-art medicine, I care for the sickest patients during a time of profound vulnerability. It is hard to watch a loved one going through a complex critical illness. Those closest to the patient may be suffering from a sense of helplessness, guilt, sadness and uncertainty. Attending to those emotions is as much a part of my job as ensuring my patient gets the best possible care. At the end of the day, my goal is to provide patients with more time on this earth to do the things they love. When that isn’t possible, I protect my patients and their friends and family from unnecessary suffering. Some of the most meaningful moments in critical care surround patients who can't be saved. Even when I can't control my patient's illness, I can control their experience of that illness. I’m here to help patients leave their lives gracefully. That is gratifying work in its own way. Hard work, but gratifying.Services
