Dr. Hitchcock believes that the key to improving and maintaining health is a doctor and a patient working together to combine the best medical evidence with that patient's health care needs and value system. "As partners, we can create a personalized health care program that can really work in an individual's life," she says. As a member of Providence Medical Group at Providence St. Vincent, Dr. Hitchcock has the opportunity to both practice this individualized health care approach and pass it on to the medical residents.
After earning her medical degree at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in Philadelphia, Dr. Hitchcock completed her residency and a Chief Resident year at the University of Rochester's Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, N.Y. She loves Portland and enjoys the temperate weather and long gardening season here.
